I'm using FF 3.6.3. I get an interminable siren sound when FF Starts. I can't get it to stop unless I go to Control Panel and turn sound to MUTE. This is unacceptable behavior for FF. Is there anything I can do to get it to stop?

This happened

Every time Firefox opened

You can update Cool Previews to the latest version. See https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2207/

Right about the same time, my power supply died and because they couldn't find a replacement they built me a Win7 machine. Don't have the problem any more. Thanks for the reply, though.
