Guest untouchable Posted July 19, 2008 Posted July 19, 2008 I am having a problem with my Start Navigation sound. I goes off every 10 seconds on its own, no matter what I do, even if im idle. I know I could just turn off the sound, but Id really like to know what is causing this to happen. might be a security issue

Guest JoelTheGeek Posted September 26, 2008 Posted September 26, 2008 Re: Start Navigation Sound every 10 seconds Just thought I'd post since I've been having this problem (though not as frequent, maybe once every 3 mins). The culprit turned out to be X-Lite (SIP Softphone software) in my case. I had noticed that there were often connections to akamaitechnologies.deploy or something like that. It looks like X-Lite has been looking for updates in a rather buggy manner. Anyways, the way that I found the culprit was using FileMon (just google for 'sysinternals filemon'). I setup a filter for '*.wav' and just waited for the next click. Then I saw that X-Lite had opened the Start Navigation wav file. Joel -- JoelTheGeek
