My PC just made a very loud, prolonged and spooky noise. I HATE it when that happens .. has it happened to anyone else?

My laptop doesn't do anything other than making weird noises and blacking out. I'd say: as long as you don't smell something burning, ignore it.

Sometimes there is a hollow laugh when I log on here - I really don't understand it and wish that it did not happen.

Oh and a property company my sister wanted me to look something up on as well. But I can't imagine that that would have been cackling at me.

It was probably an ad on one of those pages. If you look at your history for today, you can probably spot an audio file that one of them delivered to you.

How would I tell? I just looked at my history for yesterday - greetings from the future - and I can't tell what is audio and what is not..

Maybe not, then. If it sounded like a voice, then an ad is probably what it was.

Or.... Exclamation Have you seen Legion lately? Perhaps it was his/their attempt to whisper sweet nothings in your ear.

I think the laugh may belong with an advert. on Forumer ...
it doesn't happen any other time but when I am logged on here.

I don't like it!

My guitar sounded a note all by itself a moment ago Θ.Θ

I regret all the times I told it to go pluck itself.
