[gui-talk] IE7

>From what I understand, a sound event are those sounds that you hear in
windows, like the ding when you get to the end of where your cursor can go,
or the click when a thing is opening.  When you go into sounds, and you see
all the different things you can have sounds for, those things are called
sound events.  Pam.
