Can't remove Rigidbody from transform in script?

Question

I'm trying to remove a rigidbody from a transform in my script and I get this error: "MissingFieldException: Field 'UnityEngine.Rigidbody.enabled' not found." Here's my code:

transform.GetComponent(Rigidbody).enabled = false;

is there a way to remove it, or disable it? this same code works when I replace "Rigidbody" with the name of a script that's attached to the transform.

Ps. I also tried:

transform.GetComponent("Rigidbody").enabled = false;

and

transform.GetComponent(typeof(Rigidbody)).enabled = false;

but I get the same error.

do Destroy(transform.rigidbody);

If you can't destroy rigidbody than script depends on it... check at the bottom of script and comment that line.

In Unity 4.0+ rigidbody.active is deprecated and may no longer be available but you can do this:

rigidbody.detectionCollisions = false;
