shortcut key that mutes wave sounds?

Is there a shortcut key that mutes wave sounds?

Four times now in the last week, I've found a check mark in the mute box
for wave sounds,

The first time it took a while to figure this out, while I kept turning
the sound on in the systray and the control panel of the webariod
program I use. RadoMaximus. I've used RadioMaximus and everything else
for a year. I don't know of anything that's changed.

My only guess so far is that there's a hotkey that does this. I Have no
extra hotkey software installed, however.

The same thing appeared twice.

When I clicked on Reply, the =D8=A8.... turned into question marks, but
only one question mark for each set of 6 characters, like =D8=A8.

Perhaps there's another way to say what was said?

micky,

When I clicked on Reply, the =D8=A8.... turned
into question marks, but only one question mark
for each set of 6 characters, like =D8=A8

Those six characters are actually result of encoding two bytes of
information (the values (hexadecimal) D8 and A8) for email purposes (which
is supposed to contain, apart from the end-of-line (invisible) symbol, only
readable characters)

Those two bytes in turn represent a single symbol using a multi-byte
characterset. (see the "Content-Type" entry in the headers of
darineaboueid's message: "charset=UTF-8" instead of the more common
"charset=us-ascii")

This is because although our own roman character set only contains 26*2
characters (upper and lower case), 10 digit and a number of other symbols,
256 combinations (of a single byte) is not nearly enough to store a number
of other character sets that are used all over the world.

TL;DR:

The "junk" you are seeing are actually (AFAICS) arabic symbols (which are
unreadable to me). To display them your email-reader needs to have the
apropriate letterset installed/available, and the program must ofcourse have
been written to support multi-byte characters.

Perhaps there's another way to say what was said?

I have no idea what was said there, but I get the feeling that its the
equivalent of "micky wrote at at date" (the reason that your name is at
the end of that line is probably because the arabic language is supposed to
be read from right-to-left)

Having said that, I also wondered about what happened there. It looks like
the sender simply goofed up and (hopely by mistake) hit the "send" button.

Rudy Wieser

You can paste the characters into translate.google.com
and they do get detected as Arabic. The string happens
to be the date.

And the individual who did it, posted two posts that way,
so I don't know if "mistake" is quite the right word.

It could be a message for someone, somewhere else.

But as the posting is through Google Groups, just about
anything is possible.

The posting IP address is from Berlin, which is a weird place
for an Arabic speaker to post from.

There was something like this a while back. A message
was quoted, but the body text was repeated N times.
Presumably the value N was their "message". And that attack
and method lasted over a number of posts.

I tried that using AutoDetect-English and it didn't work.
It detects the text as Spanish.
Doesn't work if I use AutoDetect-Arabic either.

How did you do that exactly?

Windows keyboards has a special keyboard key called "Volume Mute".
If you don't have a Windows keyboard that has that key, you can use
AutoHotKey or any other keyboard key mapper software to map any combination
of keyboard keys to that special key. e.g. WIN+F12 - VolumeMute

In Thunderbird, I see Arabic characters.

The Copy/Paste swipe becomes quite confused.

I wiped over just the Arabic characters. Did
a copy and paste into translate.google.com
without modifying the auto-detection setting.

And it worked.

And just for kicks, I did a select-all on the
body of the message. And pasted the whole thing.
It didn't work initially. I started deleting
a small portion of the English text, and the
mixed message was translated properly. The
Arabic text turned into the date, the English
text was not translated.

The browser I was using was Firefox.

Thanks. The trouble is, and I realize I didn't explicitly say this,
that I want this to stop!

I do have a multimedia keyboard and it does have a mute key, but a) I
didnt touch it, and b) my problem is when only the wav files get muted.

If I did accidentally mute all the sound, the little speaker icon in the
systray would have an X on it, and I could just push the mute button
again and it would un-mute it.

I googled mute XP wav (or maybe I said wave. I hope not)
before my first post and found nothing, but afterwards I noted the
label on the little window with the mute checkbox, and it was volume
control, I think.

So I googled with that in it and found several people that had the
problem. For many, IE woudl start running at the same time, though that
doesn't happen to me. . But no solutions.
