Going to any other home page does not. IE and old Netscape 4.77 does not. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.go to http://www.msnbc.com/news/default.asp?0ct=-34o 2. 3. Actual Results: It makes the windows default ping sound. Expected Results: Been silent.
Probably the new popup whitelist feature.
I've also seen this bug with Mozilla 1.3b (Build ID: 2003021008) under Windows XP. On some pages, this seems to happen randomly. On other pages, such as www.morningstar.com or www.washingtonpost.com I can reproduce the problem every time I reload the page.
Edit-->Preferences-->Privacy & Security-->Popup Windows; uncheck "Play a sound." Now the suppressed popup is only indicated by an icon in the status bar. Is that the problem? If so, please mark invalid.
Unchecking "Play a sound." in Preferences-->Privacy & Security-->Popup Windows solves the problem. Information about this new feature should be added in the release notes.
