In error, I connected and (apparently) set up a wireless connection using a
USB wireless adapter that is for MUSIC, not internet connections. If i
connect this product, my computer then attempts to connect to the internet,
preventing its original intended purpose from being fulfilled.

I cannot disable it, getting the message:
"IT is not possible to disable the connection at this time. This connection
may be using one or more protocols that do not support Plug-and-Play, or it
may have been initiated by another user or the system account"

I also cannot delete it under the Network Connections tab under the Control
Panel:
"You cannot delete a connection while it is busy connecting. Please
disconnect or close the login property page and try again"

I do not know how to close these things, or even where they are. Please
help!!!
 
Have you tried booting up in safe mode? (Keep hitting F8 when booting) and
this might enable you to delete the connection. Let me know how you get
on...
