So, about two weeks ago I noticed my laptop started to make random 'plink' sounds...kind of like when a pop up is being blocked or something....that kind of sound. It just makes the sounds...it'll just do it randomly and I cannot get it to go away. IT IS SO ANNOYING!
I have done virus searches of my computer and it has come up clean. I uninstalled a program my bf put on there, and that was not the cause. The only other thing I did different was upgrade my Webroot Spy Sweeper. What is causing this and how do I get it to go away? Please help!!

I think it has some kind of a virus.

odd you should mention this. i recently upgraded my spysweeper and noticed the same plink. maybe a coincidence but i wouldn't be surprised if webroot issued a new program update in the next few days. i wish they just left the program alone and only updated the definitions.
i think it's the windows xp ding.wav making that sound - the default beep.

Go into Control Panel and sounds. Search through the different programs until you find the one making the sound and change it to no sound.

Coming from hardware interior the laptop or is it playing a sound from the operating gadget? no matter if it truly is from interior from the hardware sparkling each and every of the vents and make confident no longer some thing is blocked.
