Considering you are on XP:

Control Panel -> Network Connections (in classic view),
Right click on any connections you don't want showing an icon -> "Properties"
Uncheck "Show icon in notification area when connected"
OK.

On Vista:

Right click on the System tray
Notification Area
Uncheck Network.

go to control panel double click network connection then right click on "local area connection" and in properties unchk the box "show icon in notification.."

Just Double-Click on the Computers Icon in System Tray...

The list of connections will open-up... As you said that you don't use the internet/LAN then you can totally Disable them...

Just right-click on the listed connections one-by-ne and selecte "Disable" from the drop-down menu...

That's it!!!

OK...but will unchecking the checkbox will remove the process also from the taskmanager

Networking isn't a task in the task manager. It will hide the icon while the network will remain active. If you want to disable the network then do what a_2_z123 said.

then leave it...
