Hi,

I think that sunflowergirl has a good solution, but I don't have a Windows 2000 box running to test it on.

In XP Pro it may not work, I have a 10/100 card installed but the box is not on a network at the moment, and I get the little icon with a red "X" on it in the system tray (botton right hand corner). It does not flash in XP, but the message is similar. The "display status" box is UNCHECKED, but it still appeared.

To remove it I had to disable the connection itself (using the software option, not physically), rather than just the notification.

Just a thought
