Linksys wireless-G notebook adapter pings Cisco each second

I'm running the Linksys Wireless-G Notebook Adapter, Wireless Network Monitor v3.1, for the Linksys WPC54G card. It ping cisco every second (Out ICMP [8] Echo Request localhost->

[198.133.219.25]; Owner: TCP/IP Kernal Driver). If I turn off the monitor, I can no longer access the internet. Before I poke another permanent hole in my firewall for this ping, is there a way to operate the wireless card without having this ping? As well, has any other WPC54G user observed this ping?

Thanks.
