hi mylotters just wondering if any of you are as irritated
as I am by this one talking ad that comes on yelling at
you as you accidentally bump it while mylotting, and
'it yelling congratulations You have just won a lap top,'
wellwhat are you waiting for... this is so annoying as I
look around trying to find where the heck the sound is'
coming from. does this ever happen to you?

Hi Hatley, I just ignore, the sound is on low on the computer so therefore it doesn't annoy. What annoys me is that we really haven't won a laptop LOL and it is usually a participation thing. I can imagine though if the sound is up how it would irritate though. Ellie :D

Haha, I usually always have the sound OFF on my speakers, since they seem to make weird noises, especially when one of our cell phones is about to ring.
But I know what you mean. I've heard those in the past, and they irritate me too. I just haven't heard them on mylot yet.

thats a little funny. i only get startled if i've forgotten to turn off my sound. most times i use my pc, i leave the sound off and watch tv at same time. lol. only time its on is if im playing a game i need it for or watching a video or picking out a song.

hi bunnybon I finally resorted to turning off the sound
asit was causing me to mess up my typing and getting
upset over something silly.

Yes, it does get extremely annoying....I turn down my volume...that way I don't have to hear it...
...and you haven't won anything...you have to buy something or do something to get the laptop...

I cannot say that I have come across this one Hatley, although I do agree that it would be really annoying to have it shouting at me while typing!

I keep my house silent because I can't tolerate noise. It takes all my attention to work on mylot and other projects.
So, I'm nice and quiet, all peaceful in my head and I log onto mylot and get blasted! You should see me jump! It's a good thing I can hit the mute button. I don't even know what they're screaming about.
Anyhow, the whole world is full of screaming, trying to get our attention. It's getting harder and mmore challenging to avoid excessive noise, but I'm "ready, set, mute!" when I log on now~!

Yes Hatley, For the last 2 days this thing has been yelling at
me about that damn laptop. I was looking for a way to turn it
off. It just kept going and going and there was no way to stop
it. I haven't heard it yet today, and I hope I never hear it
again! It really was annoying! Maybe enough people complained
to Mylot and they turned it off. I thought it was just my
misfortune. Sorry you had to go through it to Hatley!
