[QUOTE="SaturnA, post: 797706, member: 84950"] You might consider installing iExorcist. Otherwise, create a new user on your system and log in with that user. Is your computer still haunted? If not, you've isolated it to some nefarious gremlins hiding in your original user account. If the problem exists then it's clearly systemic. Compare all active processes under both accounts, analyzing for differences between the two. If a rogue ghost in the shell is causing this, you might see it rise up on the list of active processes when the sound occurs. Always peruse your Audio/MIDI Settings in the utility folder, sometimes applications change your settings resulting in audio anomalies. Listening to the mp3, there is a certain resemblance to the ambient engine noise of the starship Enterprise. Perhaps it is time to leave this holodeck simulation of early 21st century cyberspace and get back to your post. [/QUOTE]
