This runs because Redhat by default keeps kudzu in the runlevels.  You
should be able to stop this from happening by going into
/etc/rc{2,3,4,5}.d/ and moving the S??kudzu to K??kudzu.  I think it's
S95, but I'm on a debian box right now and can't remember what it is. 
However, if you un kudzu from the command line, it should hopefully pick
up the card.  Let me know if that doesn't work.  Also check to make sure
that the module for your wireless card is loaded.
