Often, an already disconnected drive is displayed until the system is refreshed. Also, if the computer you mapped to is not turned on or has been removed from the domain, you can't do a disconnect.

Reboot and see if it goes away. At the very minimum, you should receive a message saying it can not reconnect and ask you if you want to keep trying. So, you can answer no.

Sometimes, due to some stupid bug in Windows, a disconnected network or local drive simply won't go away and must be removed by fudging a few regkeys. Search the registry for the "mountpoint2" key and you'll find where you'll have to add a new key for the drive letter and give it a new string of "BaseClass" with a value of "Drive".
