OK,

Now follow me. I'm a network admin in dc. I have users to whom we give laptops with the wireless network connection enabled, so that they can use their laptops wherever there are wireless access points.

We have users who are curious and right-click the microsoft wireless connection icon in the systray and select "disable" of all things! Now we DON'T give them admin rights, so they can't re-enable the wireless network connection after they disable it. Therefore we get calls from dumb users who arwe in, like, Malaysia, saying "Hey, I just disabled my wireless connection, how can I re-enable it" Answer: "You can't dumb-f$#k".

My question is: How (and there must be some registry key that handles this) can we grey out or remove even the option to "disable" after right-clicking the ms wireless network connection icon?

First one with the correct reg-hack gets a free gift certificate to Chuckie-Cheese!
