is there not a connection WMI event that you can use to fire off a script?

Subject: [THIN] OT: Disabling wireless NIC when plugged in to your corporate
network
Definitely off topic...
I've searched Google but only found others with the same question - no good
solution.
We are configuring our WindowsXP laptops to do a few things automatically
based on where they are plugged in. When they are on our corporte network
the firewall is configured a certain way, the proxy is enabled in IE, etc.
When they are not on our network the firewall gets locked down, proxy gets
disabled, etc. The last remaining piece to this is I would like for all
other NICs (WiFi, EVDO) to turn off/disable when the laptop gets plugged in
to our LAN. I cannot find a way to shudown interfaces via Group Policy.
Anyone out there already deal with this? What did you do?
Thanks in advance.
