    Sounds like a program running in the backround. Does it only happen when your online? What operating system you running? If Windows 9X, XP, NT go to start, run, and type in: MSCONFIG. Click on the startup tab and check off whatever you dont need or use. Restart your computer, check the "Do not show this again" box, and see if that solves your problem.

      Never heard of an advertisement that can produce sound with no Windows open or programs running. If you're using XP maybe it's coming through Windows messaging? If that's it you can download the latest Windows update to take care of that. I believe it defaults messaging to off.

      I would also run Ad Aware and / or Spy Bot as a good preventative.

      Good luck finding it..........
