hi i have the same problem but buzz bleeps every couple of seconds!! i don't
have pest patrol but have zone alarm, spy bot and adaware. i think it is zone
alarm but am unsure of how to - 'C:\Program files
and rename the cookiecrunch.wav to cookiecrunch.old wav (or make a new .wav
file of your own as a replacement).'
