Why when I'm reading Apolyton threads- there is the clicking noise Remove this text

very freaking annoying. it is even doing it as I write this thread.

You know in IE 5.5 the explorer will make a click when it loads a new page. I am getting that clicking at Apolyton even when I'm not loading a different page.

Please make it stop!! Driving me crazy. I can't even concentrate on writing this thread because of the clicking. Yes I know I can turn the sound off, but I really don't want to do that. Plus the screen flashes like it is refreshing. Is there some auto refresh thing I don't know about?

Yes, I'm also getting that click. Is it related to the monkey add, or just a bug?

Go into your control panel and click Sounds.

On my computer, those sounds are called "Start navigation" and "End navigation". Change them/remove them.

Suffering from ads?

Lose 30 kilos (of popups)

Probably has to do with the few ad servers that are being connected to.

Either that or the iframes or something.

Yes, very annoying indeed. Not just the sounds, but simply the fact it´s constantly reloading at all.

It was making me write angry and frustrated posts if I didn't write them in notepad and copied the code.
