Sometimes when on the SDMB, I get a 8 second music loop. Probably a keyboard but sounds like a flute. It keeps repeating until I change a page or open a post. Sometimes it returns. Any one else have this problem?

It’s probably attached to an ad. Since you are a Guest and not a dues-paying subscriber, you see and sometimes hear advertising.

I just got music from a car ad on the regular Straight Dope page. That was a first.
