Namco's 'Pac Man' is having it's 30th anniversary today and Google is celebrating by having a little flash game as their logo for today only.

That is an issue with the "Cool Previews" extension. You can update Cool Previews to the latest version. See https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/2207/

I have the same crazy sound when on the internet. Click off the internet no crazy sound. Is someone trying to sabotage Firefox?
