There's a much easier way to do this!

In the Timbuktu application, open the Preferences and under "General" simply check the box marked "Only accept incoming connections when application is open"

Viola -- from now on, when you quit the Timbuktu application, the connection menu (i.e. the Timbuktu host) will not be loaded and the menu icon will be gone. Of course, you cannot make incoming connections to Timbuktu when it is not running in this state!

Also, you can move the icon around to other places on your screen by control-clicking on it and then dragging it.
