    Okay so a few days ago my PC started making this weird sound coming out of the speakers. It is definitely not electrical noise but a pre recorded sound. It sounds like 3 cars driving by you at a high speed. if you hear it it would sound like Whoosh Whoosh Whoosh very fast. I have an XP last time I heard it had the WOW mmo gaming mouse soft opened, AIM, Mozilla Firefox and M$ WOrd. Its definetly not AIM i checked all the sound effects please reply its driving me crazy even though it doesnt happen that often. Oh yea and last time i heard it it happenened when i used my search bar, but i think it was a coincidence cause then it didnt happen again.. I have the Mozilla Night Launch theme and some addons for it
