Don't think it's your PC, I think it's that acorn on your head!

Seriously though, I have no idea sorry.

You >< me?

Its probably to do with your speaker/cable going to your speaker.

Does it sound like a badly tuned radio?

If you have MSN or AIM running it's either the AIM ads or a glitch in your version of MSN. Yahoo tool bar might have something on it that does that to but I've never let yahoo toolbar install on my PC so I could tell you for sure.
