Default How to hide SysTray icon for inactive network connections?

On my notebook there are two possible network connections:
One over "normal" cable LAN and another one over WLAN.

How can I (permanently) hide all SysTray icons for those connections which are
currently in-active ?

Just now for example the WLAN is not enabled but the icon is still visible
(with a little red cross in the corner).
If I hover of it I am told "... not connected..."

How can I get rid of it until I activate WLAN ?

1. Click Start, click Run, type ncpa.cpl, and then click OK.
2. Double-click the connection which you want to disable from showing up on
the system tray, and then click Properties.
3. On the General tab, click to clear the Notify me when this connection has
limited or no connectivity check box, click OK, and then click Close.

this should work...
