Vista and the case of the mysterious audio
« on: November 22, 2008, 08:06:53 PM »
Ok, this is an odd one and has been happening now for the past month.

 I will be either: doing nothing yet have my HTPC on OR
                      watching a recorded video on my HTPC

 When all of a sudden, music (or more recently what sounded like an ad) will start to play for about 5 seconds �" then just go away. I can't stop it myself be pressing stop on my remote or closing windows media centre - so it coming from elsewhere

 The music didn't sound like anything I have in my library and the ad, well. didn't have that either.

 So...any clues as to what it could be and what could be causing it (other than a ghost!!)

Also - Symantec virus scan has been going crazy saying i haev a trojan - when i delete it, it looks like another takes its place...HELP!!

P.S This should be in the tech clinic - Sorry - looking forward to your help once again guestolo :-)
