Sounds on web pages or sounds when you click on navigation buttons?
OP
The actual sounds coming from the web-pages themselves.
Go to control panel\internet options click advanced tab, scroll down to multimedia and uncheck 'play sounds in web pages'
OP
That was my first thought. It didn't work. I also uncecked play animations, and play videos. They didn't work either.
Should work.
Check registry @
my computer\hkey_local_machine\software\microsoft\internet explorer\advancedoptions\multimedia\sounds.
should show (among others):
(Defult): (value not set)
CheckedValue: yes
DefultValue: yes
Text: Play sounds in web pages
Type: checkbox
UncheckedValue: no
ValueName: Play_Background_Sounds.

Now I'm really stumped. That is what my registry says, and I'm still getting sounds fro certain web-sites.
I think thats all I have for you.
Been looking but havn't found any other way of doing it.
Are you sure these sites dont have a mute key?
