I don't think you can unload NDIS IM without uninstalling it, or at least unbinding from all adapters below it.

After all, IM is a miniport, and miniports are PnP drivers, so, the PnP unload rules apply - "no devices left for this driver". In this case, "device" is NDIS's internal devnode to represent the binding.

Use correct 32/64 bit bindview tool (which comes with WDK sample) and
unbind all the IM binding therefore IM will be unloaded.
