Chosen solution

I did what Thomas suggested and IT WORKED!!!!! Here is what He suggested.


Firefox user

add http://www.google.*/logos/js/pacman10-hp.2.js to AdBlockPlus blacklist


I didn't have AdBlockPlus. So, I just went to the firefox plugins add on page, searched for it, and downloaded it.

When Firefox restarted I found the AdBlockPlus Icon on the top right of my screen and clicked on the arrow to the left it that points down.

Then I clicked on preferences.

After that I clicked on the "ADD FILTER" tab at the bottom left of the box that came up.

Then I copied and pasted http://www.google.*/logos/js/pacman10-hp.2.js into the "new filter" space and pressed ok.

After restarting Firefox, the sounds were gone.

I hope this works for everyone else too.
