Getting rid of the Flashing Modem in the Tray
 

If you have configured Windows95's built-in dial-up networking, you
have probably noticed the tiny modem icon that appears in the tray
whenever you make a connection. To remove this icon, follow these
instructions:

Open up Dial-Up Networking - it's somewhere in the Start
menu. (For some unknown reason, this setting cannot be found in
the Modem settings in Control Panel.)
Right-click on the connection you wish to change. If you
have more than one, you guessed it - repeat these steps for all
of them.
In the Connect using section, click on Configure... (This
displays a box similar, but not identical to the modem settings
in Control Panel.)

Click on the Options tab, and turn off Display modem
status in the Status control section.
Click OK, then click OK again.
