disabling wifi card on PCs via GP

I have windows 7 computers with wifi cards in them and I need to disable all of them via GP.
I've googled this, but nothing comes up that is the solution.

Anyone has thoughts on this?

The users keep on getting annoying popups asking for more information, so they can log in to the wifi network, but
they don't need to use the wifi network.

McKnife, that sounds like it would work but the problem is, the NICs are going to be different on the different computers, so how do I know which device to select?

As you can read here http://www.home-network-help.com/wlan-autoconfig-service.html this does not prevent users from using other methods to connect to WLANs - therefore, this is no solution.

McKnife, I wasn't trying to prevent them from connecting to the wifi, I was merely just trying to figure a way to remove the annoying ballon popup. I know how to remove the ballon popup for all notifications, but I didn't want to do that as I only wanted to stop the wifi message.
