    Does anyone know how to disable the "click" sound played when loading a page inside the .NET 2.0 Web Browser control?

      The WebBrowser control doesn't expose any method or property to turn that sound off. It uses the settings found in Internet Explorer's Tools/Options dialog.

        :(( uggg hoped that wasn't the answer :( though there might be some deep/obscure property or a way to override/capture the sound event :( I didn't wish to disable it via the reg setting cause then it wouldn't work in IE if they were running the program and IE at the same time... plus if it crashed (for who know why) the setting might not get set back :( looks like I gotta change HKEY_CURRENT_USER\AppEvents\Schemes\Apps\Explorer\Navigating\.Current\ -- modified at 15:14 Friday 24th August, 2007

          Quick question - why do you want to disable the click sound? If a user has IE setup to "click", then they'll find it comforting and normal when they click a link in your app and hear the "click". Just my 2 pennies worth, but I think users will tend to trust your application more if it follows a routine they're familiar with.

            because the GUI for my application is 100% HTML based and it clicks during refresh or navigation, which is annoying to hear the "tick" ... "tick" ... "tick" ... "tick" ... "tick" ... "tick" ... "tick" ... "tick" ... "tick" I don't want to disable it for all of IE; but I must do what I have to do. The boss doesn't like the ticking sound, so it has to go away...
