How to disable clicking sound in Internet Exlplorer
At CampusLIVE we just begain using PhpLiveSupport to further engage our users. The Windows tray app that comes with it allows us to monitor chat requests right from the tray which is nice. The only downside is the annoying clicking sound that IE makes everytime the traffic monitor loads. Since I can’t figure out how to switch it to use FireFox, I’ve silenced it for the meantime.
Disabling Internet Explorer Sounds – Windows XP/NT/Server 2003
Open the Start Menu -> Settings -> Control Panel.
Open “Sounds” control panel. In this control panel, Scroll down in the events window until you reach “Windows Explorer” and under this you will find “Start Navigation.”
Click on “Start Navigation” and you will see a .wav file appear in the “Name:” box.
In the “Name:” drop down menu, select (None) and then hit “OK”. This will set no sound to be played when you’re navigating on the web.
