Lenovo has a program called Access Connections where you can set up
profiles to do this.  However I don't know if you can use on
non-Lenovo/IBM systems.  It is available on their site as a download.

That works wonderfully, however the Wireless is still open and if you do
not have it properly secured someone can attach to it wirelessly and try
to Hack in that way.  I would like to see if there is a way to do this
also for our wireless users.

I have never been able to find a GPO or app that will do this.
However you can set the weight on your network adapters.  Set a lower
value on the Wired NIC and a higher value on the Wireless NIC that way
the pc will always choose the Wired NIC if both have a connection.

Network Connections --> LAN Connection --> TCPIP --> Advanced -->
Uncheck Automatic Metric and put in an Interface Metric.  Lower gets
more weight.
