I have an XP that plays a not so nice sound when you open a certain web page.
No other pc on the network does this, just this one machine and only on
opening one certain web page, any other web page is fine.
I have been a computer technician for over 20 years and have looked in all
the usuall places for sounds but can not find where this one is coming from?
Any ideas?

Thanks for the help

Yes it is XP SP3 and internet explorer Version 6. The web page is a real
estate page, i do not know the actual address but i could get it, BUT it does
not do this on anyone elses, same web page, on their computer.

We'd need the URL to check this remotely. Otherwise, it may be caused by a
third-party application.

Hi,
Is a third-party program (security, ad-blocker, cookie blocker, etc) making
the sound, but is maybe not listed in Control Panel> Sounds?

Is PestPatrol (just one possible culprit) installed?

Hope this helps,
Don

I do not know but will check for third party programs.

No the sound is not listed in sounds under control panel, the ones in there
are the Windows defaults.

Thanks
