I'm trying to remove the network tray icon programmatically. In Windows 2003/XP I could just remove the key "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{7007ACCF-3202-11D1-AAD2-00805FC1270E}" but that isn't the case anymore in 2008R2.
Anyone know how to access the "Turn system icons on or off" automatically and turn off "Network?"
TIA.

Why don't you try for group policy settings to accomplish it. Here is the way to set user configuration settings.Also use same settings to enable/disable icons from notification area.
User Configuration -> Policies -> Administrative Templates -> Start Menu and Taskbar -> Remove the networking icon= enabled.
