Confirmed. Disabling 'Cool Previews' solves it!

Damn I use Cool Previews all the time. I'm sure they're scrambling to fix it though this will not be helping them.

Me too! I thought it was just me!

Thanks for the suggestion - I was just about to throw the machine thru the window

deffinittley Cool Preview. I disabled that and it stopped. you may try changing the search bar from google to another.

Disable or remove Cool Previews.

Oh yeah, and read other posts! This fix has been posted at least 20 times already!!!

Damn definitely should not have clicked "send email when a response has been made."

I turned off Cool Previews to get it to stop, but I want it back! Please fix it!

Uninstall

  2. Click on Tools > Add-Ons > Extensions, and then select CoolPreviews"
  3. Click "uninstall".
  4. Exit your Firefox browser completely.
  5. CoolPreviews will no longer be installed when you reopen your Firefox browser

This noise is really getting on my t!ts. Is there a way to mute firefox without muting the computer?

Ditto

what a stupid add-on, it happened to me. Poor business model, piss off your customers until they get rid of your software.

cuz of the extension called CoolPreviews.Look here：CoolPreviews problem

It was google's new doodle.. celebrating pac-man's 30th anniversary . http://cybergyaan.blogspot.com/2010/05/google-plays-pacman.html

Thank god the Cool Previews add-on was the only problem... i nearly threw my tower out the window...

I disabled the Shockwave Flash plugin, and it stopped.... Hope it helps

Disable CoolPreview addon!

Please advise how to shut this noise up. Scary when google decides to play a little pacman game it affects every page on firefox when I never even accessed google today...

where do you find the Add-Ons to remove them?
