When I open Firefox, my computer tower starts beeping, it does not beep if I use another browser, When installing FireFox my antivirus said it was a threat, I told it to monitor it, should I un-install and re-install??

You might want to check with support for that anti-virus application, to find out what that beep code means.

What kind of beep? Was a message displayed? Are you sure that its the computer? Only with Firefox? How long between starting and the beep? Are there any add-ons that beep for whatever reason?

soon as I open Firefox it starts to beep and yes it is coming from the tower. I tried Google Chrome, it beeps also, IE does not beep.

I will contact my anti virus and see what they say.
