Anyone know how to change or at least eliminate the sound FF makes when
it can't find text in a page you search for using "find"?  I HATE the
default sound & almost jump out of my chair every time it goes off.
Tried searching/listening to all likely .wav's to locate the culprit,
tried looking in program files/mozilla & docs & settings for sound
files, no luck.  Also tried looking in the about:config list.

TIA

Dan

Under about :config, there's accessibility.typeaheadfind.enablesound,
which is boolean and will enable you to turn it off, or there's
accessibility.typeaheadfind.soundURL, which should allow you to pick a
different one.

Thanks Andy & Rom, that did the trick.  I saw that setting, but from the
name (type ahead) I thought it had to do with auto-form filling.
