In summary, Jeff Goebel runs Frogstar, a website with over 2000 sound files. When someone uses these files without giving him credit, they're costing him money. He recommends listeners listen to daisy.wav to set the mood for the collection.

Rut roh, Ivan! This is what I get when I click on the link you provided.
OOPS! That didn't work!

You tried to play the sound file: daisy.wav
This sound file is no longer available from the website you visited.

You can find it and listen to it at http://frogstar.com/wav

I do not allow other web sites or forums to use my collection of sound or media files this way.

My name is Jeff Goebel. I run a website called Frogstar which has over 2000 sound files.

It personally costs me a fair chunk of cash each month to provide my collection of sound and media.

When somebody tries to use these files without giving me credit, they're costing me money I get no benefit.

Sorry. It probably isn't your fault. You're probably just trying to hear a theme song, or funny movie quote. I'm not blaming you.

You can still play, or download the file you were looking for.

There are a lot of cool sounds at http://frogstar.com/wav

If you're creating a web site, you can even re-post it on your site if you wish to. Then it'll be your bandwidth. I claim no ownership of the files themselves. They're ALL stolen from somewhere. I only claim ownership of the collection, and where they reside on the Internet. If you want them, take them... just don't play them directly from my site.

Okay, go here and listen to daisy.wav to help set the mood.

I got the same error. And I'm disappointed about that, because there's nothing more heartwarming than apple pie, the Miss America Pageant, and a nice story about a boy and his server.

Heh, got it now.

Greg, I wouldn't start to worry unless you start on the upgrade and your machine asks you, "What are you doing, Greg?" :smile:

I was hopeful that upgrading would change my title to a Super Mentor! Somehow that means "PF is gone!". But it didn't happen!

Funny you should mention that. A couple of years ago I got the 2001 soundtrack on CD. Included were clips of all the conversations with HAL. So I put the CD in my computer and used edited sections of those clips for the sounds for my computer.
So for the Exclamation sound I got "What are you doing Dave?"
For the Program Error sound I got " I'm afraid that I can't do that, Dave"
And for windows shut down I got a few bars of HAL singing "Daisy"

I think it was in Windows 95, but maybe it was way back in Windows 3.11 that they had those wav files as options for the sounds, so I had those, along with the StarTrek sounds (the doors opening and closing accompanied opening and closing a window or application). :smile:

Hal is simply way too scary for me.
I had to run off and have Leonard Nemoy sing a reassuring ballad for me:
