A water drip sound plays every once and a while while the computer is in use. I do not know where it is coming from, I've checked sound preferences in control panel, as well as internet options (i see no sound prefs there). How do I get rid of it?

Are you running a pop-up blocker? Many of them produce audio cues when a pop-up is blocked.

I had the same problem. Found the anwser on http://www.computercops.biz/postlite12442-.html If you are running a program call pestpatrol it will make a drip noise to indicate a block cookie. I stoped using pestpatrol and solved the problem.
