Thanks - just installed classic shell and we’ll give it a go and see how it works.
One minor annoyance - I use Mozilla Sea Monkey for browser, and like the tabbed set up - but whenever I open a tab i get a really annoying and loud “b’ZZZoit” sound.
Have tried to disable it in control panel, but can’t.
Tried locating the sound / *.wav file to delete it, but can’t find that either (and I listened to all of them trying to find it). Nothing to change sounds in Edit > Preferences either.
Any suggestions?
TIA - GV
See if the problem persists if you run SeaMonkey in safe mode. Safe mode should be an option in your Programs menu under SeaMonkey. If not, run this in Start > Run or from the command prompt:
"C:\Program Files\SeaMonkey\seamonkey.exe" -safe-mode
Choose to disable all your add-ons.
If that gets rid of the problem, you have to isolate the add-on that is playing the sound. In regular (not safe) mode look at your add-ons AND extensions in Tools > Add-ons manager, and keep disabling individual items until you find the culprit.
If that's not it, and if the sound is not just SeaMonkey notifying you that you have email, I don't have any idea what is causing the sound to play. You can always track it down with Sysinternals process explorer, but that is a pain.
