If I view the above URL, then click on one of the bookmark folders, I notice that a sound is played as I move the pointer up and down the bookmarks. This only happens when the pointer is over part of the web page that would make this noise, ie when it is over the small 'window' just below the login 'window' on the top left hand side of the web page. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.make a bookmark folder on your personal toolbar that has a large number of bookmarks in it, such that, when you open the folder, the selection menu drops down over a large portion of the web page. 2.view the above web page in the browser 3.notice that, as you move the pointer over the text "profile", "Pucca's Room", and "News", a "Pucca Icon" appears, and a sound plays. 4.if you now open the bookmark folder that you have carefully positioned to drop down over that window, the same things happen as if there was no bookmark menu was there. Actual Results: things happen on the web page depending on the position of the pointer, when the bookmark menu is selected Expected Results: nothing should happen on the web page when selecting a bookmark
(In reply to comment #0) This still occurs using Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.7) Gecko/20050414 Firefox/1.0.3.
I stumbled across another interesting method of reproducing this bug on OS X: 1. Open a few windows including a Firefox window with the test case (http://puccaclub.com/eng/) loaded. 2. With the Firefox window active engage All Windows in Exposé (F9 if you have the default key bindings) to get a zoomed out view of all the windows you have open. 3. Mouseover the same screen coordinates where the links that produce the bleep sound were before the Firefox window was zoomed out to a new location in the Exposé view. You'll find the sounds being triggered as if the Firefox window was still active and in it's original location. Also the cursor will switch to the link ("pointer finger") cursor.

Statistically, we have found that bug reports that have not been confirmed by a second user after three months are highly unlikely to be the source of a fix to the code. While your input is very important to us, our resources are limited and so we are asking for your help in focussing our efforts.
