Archived from groups: alt>comp>virus (more info?)

All of a sudden I am hearing water drops on my computer at odd times. There
isn't anything going on so it isn't a sound I've selected.

Can anyone help? Please??????

Personally, however, I think that this thread is beginning to go a little OT now, now that the can of worms concering the 2000 election has been reopenned. For this, I suggest we start a new group: alt.comp.virus/politics. -- William If it don't work, hit it. If it still don't work, kick it. If it works after that, than it doesn't matter if that helped, what's important is it works. >> Stay informed about: Water Drop Sound on Computer

There I was thinking we were discussing strange noises coming from a computer that _could_ be evidence of a virus, or _could_ be the increasingly bizarre behaviour of mike o'soft's products. But, Florida, politics, hmm, you could just be right. Julie McCann Home, the unexplained noises you and I are hearing in our computers is the sounds of thousands of displaced chads from the florida elections coming back to haunt us. But why me? I didn't vote for him. I don't even live in the USA? No, I'll stick with Windows habit of stuffing default sounds into strange places. That, or you'ge got WetWare running in the background Adrian_S >> Stay informed about: Water Drop Sound on Computer
