How do I turn off the sound which gets played when Cookie Pal encounters a cookie?

If you have a sound card installed in your system you may want to select this option. Normally when Netscape Navigator or Internet Explorer display a cookie alert message you will hear a sound as the message box is displayed. When Cookie Pal intercepts the message box it cannot prevent the sound from being played at that time.

 

To disable the sound permanently follow these steps:

  1. If the main Cookie Pal window is already displayed, then go to step 4.

  2. Right click on the Cookie Pal icon in the taskbar tray.

  3. Select Show from the menu which appears to display the main Cookie Pal window.

  4. Click on the "Sounds" tab with the left mouse button.

  5. Click on "Disable standard alert sound" so that a check is displayed next to the option.

Selecting this option will cause Cookie Pal to permanently disable the sound while both Cookie Pal and a web browser are running . The side effect of this is that it will disable the sound for all similar message boxes displayed by any other applications in your system. The sound is only disabled while Cookie Pal and a browser are running if this option is checked. When you close your browser or Cookie Pal the sound setting will be restored in the registry.

 

You can also select alternate sounds to be played when cookies are accepted or rejected on the Sounds tab of the Cookie Pal window, if you like.
