I found what was causing this "problem."
It is a security utility called "msec" that runs every minute
apparently sniffing for "promisc(uity)" and any other unseemly
activity on the system. I found that it can be turned off,
but apparently it has some benefit in that it sends an email
alert to the system administrator if it discovers any malicious
activity.
