IE6 - popping sound

[RD]

Whenever I load certain pages I get a loud popping sound (hard to
describe - perhaps I should say a loud boink,very high pitched!) or it
could be described as the sound of water drop hitting water - a blurp - only
much louder.

There are a couple or more pops during and after http://www.cbs.com/ loads
for
example.

I have pop-up blockers - all are set to no sound. It doesn't seem to be
related to pop-up blockers.
I am running XP IE 6.0.29

Very annoying when I am trying to listen to music or web broadcast. Any
ideas?

If you have PestPatrol installed, you will need to disable the
CookieCrunch.wav file. If PP Systray icon is
visible>right-click>cookiepatrol>disable sound.

You may also disable it permanently by re-naming the cookiecrunch.wav to
..wav old.

Thanks I will give it a try. PP is installed so you probably nailed it!

Right RD. Hope it'll do it for you.

Heh! It is THE most annoying Alert I have ever heard, so I'm with you on
this. Just as a gag I changed the .wav file to something else as a joke. Of
course, I quickly got over it, but here it is:

(Warning - Not for the timid, or under 18 yrs of age. This might possibly be
offensive to some.)

Again, definitely NOT for the timid... although the pronunciation has been
"doctored", the gist of it comes through loud and clear.
