Probably would get annoying except I usually only go mozilla when Firefox
fails. And once that said annoyance teaches me to look for that durned
icon, I can, I presume, shut it back off... Ahha, Now I know why I
didn't try it when I 1st configured... There were no included sample
sounds, I had to hunt down an appropriate wav file. Copied a shooting
sound from some game. If it starts sounding like a machine gun, I won't
much "like" the web site that's shooting the pop-up attempts at me.
But basically I think it will do to remind me about that icon.
Thanks!
