Just a small question. If you dont want the user to see the second option and user will never be able to select it, why do you need to have 2 options in Dropdown?

HTML

<select id="mySelect">
    <option value="A">Option A</option>
    <option value="B" style="display:none;">Option B</option>
</select>

If it's a asp:DropDownList with listitem's you cant't set visible="false" or anything. You will have to rebind the list without option "B".
Or you can achieve the same with javascript (jquery):

JavaScript

function hideB() {
    $('#mySelect').find('option[value="B"]').hide();
}
