At first I thought, “Oh how cool, I loved the pacman game…oh you can even play it with your arrow keys!”… Ok, now I need to get to work and I need to watch a video and listen to the speaker… But the SOUND won’t stop.
Ok, now this is not cool or fun anymore. This is really hacking me off!
With IE8 you can just change your homepage in your internet options, but with Firefox, which I use almost exclusively… no matter what I did, the sound would NOT STOP!!
Ok, I figured it out… go to your tools –> options –> content and click “exceptions” next to the “load images automatically” checkbox. Input www.google.com and hit “block”. That should cure you! Geeeesh what a lame thing for them to do.
If that doesn’t work for you. I don’t know what to tell you…
Google made a HUGE mistake with this one. The programmer needs to get a week off without pay to think about his mistake, or maybe the whole department who is responsible.
