pacman

Its a classic game and today PACMAN is celebrating 30 years of life.  If you go to www.google.com you will find a playable version of the game on the front page in a flash format.  PACMAN is still as popular now as it was when it was first released.  Creator Toro Iwatan created a gaming legend.

A word of warning for you Firefox users out there.  Many people are noticing that the PACMAN sound is not going away from there browser when they are surfing, even when they only have a blank tab open.  To cure this problem keep reading.

Why does the PACMAN tune start playing when I open firefox?

The reason lies within the plugins of Firefox.  When I first started up Firefox today  this tune would not leave me alone and I naturally thought VIRUS.  Don’t panic, it’s nothing to worry about.  The common reason for this seems to be when a certain plugin called “coolpreviews” is enabled.  To solve the problem select  Tools>Add-ons from the browser tool bar.  Find the “coolpreview” plugin and select disable.  Firefox will then ask you to restart your browser and upon reopening the problem will be solved….hopefully.

If you have experienced this and have solved it some other way then please comment on this post so I can include the information for others.  In the mean time enjoy playing PACMAN.
