I keep my sound permanently off now - I get an annoying clonk every time I switch messages or pages - and that darn woman on the printer who tells me i'm out of paper or I have two more pages to print drives me nuts !!! ~:o)

I don't get any ads just an empty box - maybe due to settings on Norton Firewall??? Maz. XX

....and now there's a noise that sounded a bit like a heart beating - but I'd clicked onto a different page before I saw what they were advertising!! Still far too early in the morning for all that noise!!

Anyone else rather the adverts on Genes were silent?? The latest wannadoo one was playing tennis yesterday and earlier on, and now it's playing the piano at me!! I am not a morning person!! I like peace and quiet with my cuppa in the morning!! Need to have the sound on computer turned on so that I can hear the alerts that I want to hear - definitely don't need noisy adverts as well!!!!!!
