Audible Beep While Web Browsing
 

I recently received an automatic ugprade to my Windows XP software, and I
have run into a problem when I surf the Web. When using either Internet
Explorer or any other web brower, I now get an audible beep when I move
between web pages. The beep sound like a coffee pot that is percolating. I
went to Start, Control Panel, Internet Options, and then Sounds And Audio
Devices, but I could not locate the option that will enable me to eliminate
this annoying sound when I move between Web pages. How can I eliminate this
audible beep when I surf the Web?

Do you mean a single, short pop, as if the pop-up blocker had just blocked a
pop-up ad?

It is indeed a single or double pop, very similar to the sound of a pop-up
blocker

I tried what you said, but unfortunately I still get a beep that sound like
a pop-up blocker warning. What is the next step?
