It seems that Linksys utility & windows utility is having conflict..... try this setting ....
Click start >> all programs >> linksys wireless G adapter >> click uninstall >> insert the disc of adapter >> exit out of set up wizard >> reboot the computer >> it will show you found new hardware >> install the drivers for the adapter .....
Use the wireless zero configuration for wireless connection ....
it will not ahow any icon of linksys utility on system tray ...as you are using windows utility for connection ....
