Hi, Paul -
Right-Click on the icon in the system tray and select Disable. This should
keep the "...unplugged..." message from popping up.
When you need to use it in the future go to Control Panel, Network
Connections and then right-click on the connection and select Enable to
re-enable it.
Hope this helps,
