    Question WebBrowser Control Sound Issue

    Hello there!

    We are thinking about adding something similar to a forum in our HTML help (Which is going to be a WebBrowser control that will navigate through local and external pages). However, the WebBrowser control refreshes every certain time and a "click" is heard whenever this happens.

    My question is... Is there a way to mute this "click" in the WebBrowser control? The goal of the program is not to mess with the sounds of the system nor force the user to turn it off or anything like that. Could anyone please help me?

    Thank you very much
    We miss you, friend... Rest in Peace, we will take care of the rest of it.

    This click when someone is clicking on a link is not only by the webrowser control. i think its part of the system sound setting but it could also be in the IE setting. you could use vb code to mute the pc but i dono what mutes the 'link click sound'. since you don't wona turn off the user speakers then you will have to find how to shut it enually then i might find a code for it.

    It clicks because the user wants it to click. I wouldn't bother turning it off.

    Re: WebBrowser Control Sound Issue

    Thank you all for your answers.

    I just want to clarify something... I don't want to disable the "click" sound when the user clicks on a link. I want to disable the "click" sound when the page is refreshed automatically.

    Thank you David for the example, I am going to check it as soon as I can.
