XFCE does not manage your WiFi access. NetworkManager, one of several
programs that does, often accompanies XFCE. Assuming you have
NetworkManager:
In the notification area (upper right panel), right click on the signal
strength widget, and select "Edit Connections...". Select a connection
you wish to delete. Click on the minus sign widget at the bottom.
You can also (as root) delete files
from /etc/NetworkManager/system-connections/. I have not tried this. I
suggest you first turn NetworkManager off, and then back on when you
are done.

Does anybody read signatures any more?
