Maybe it's just a real one? have you checked into the themes or even to see if an audio file is in the startup.
I have also heard it on my nieces computer which is a Dell mine is a built up I did 8 years ago. She is the one that downloaded movies. I used combo fix to clean hers and mine. I have her movies on my tarabyte drive on desk top. maybe more malware hidden?Quote:

A joke of someone else using your computer, you should go contropanel to delete.

Do you happen to have weatherbug installed? Did a google search and read quite a few articles related to the cricket sound and most turned out to be associated with weatherbug.
That is awesome, yes I have weather bug installed. Thank you :thumbs:Quote:

I've also seen Weatherbug give the user an additional bonus: HotBar! Yes, yet one more bit of free malware.
Spybot, MBM, Combofix, and most AV software will delete this stuff. But The Weather Channel continues to claim their product is "spyware free".
