Yeah we were pretty sure that this is some sort of JPEG information
in the ICMP packet. I have seen some other activity between
ports 88 and 1107 as well with the hosts involved in the ICMP
conversations. I did manage to come across another post somewhere
else talking about this same kind of activity, this was the post.

If anybody else has any helpful insight it would be appreciated. Thanks!

Anybody recognize this payload? It is part of an ICMP packet. I have
searched google 
and haven't found any reason why I would see this data in an ICMP echo
packet. 
Awfull suspicous....

   The JFIF is part of the header information in a JPEG image file.
  If somebody is really tunneling image files through an ICMP connection
  that is definitely not good (who knows what else is moving that way).
