The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

I was watching a YouTube Video with my headphones on.  I then suddenly hear a buzzing noise.  I immediately pause the video and still hear it.  After careful listening, I find it's coming from my HP w17e computer monitor's speakers.

I have currently shut down my desktop computer and am now on my laptop.

What can I do to fix this problem?

Unplug the 3.5mm jack from both the back of the desktop and the back of the monitor, then plug it in again.  If it came partly unplugged from either the desktop or the monitor, it can make a buzzing sound.  If that doesn't fix it, then it could be the sound card.  Try plugging the monitor speakers into your laptop and see if it still makes the same sound.

^^Looks like unplugging it completely and plugging it back in did the trick.  Not making that buzzing noise anymore.  Thanks! :)
