Closing Control Panel window

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.general (More info?)

Why do I get the "default beep" everytime I close the control panel window?
Even if I don't do anything within the control panel, I still get that "ding"
when I close the window, indicating some sort of error...

Nope - just when I close control panel and, I just noticed, when I close IE.
Definitely new as of today, and can't think of anything I did that would
cause this.

Now that's a handy little tool I didn't know about. However, in this
instance, it is not logging any sort of error after the "default beep."
