Yeah you're lucky. As a teenager I used to hate that sound the modem made while i snuck into the family computer room in the middle of the night to "play solitaire." I always thought that dialing sound could wake up my parents and they'd walk in on me while I was playing "solitaire." It would be quite embarassing to be caught with a full deck in my hands.

What's the string to mute the modem? M0 or H0?

Remember those crazy pop-ups that you would frantically try to close before anybody walked into the room. You think you've nailed them all until your mom walks to see what "research was so important you had to do it in the middle of the night" and BAM a pop up with the "moneyshot" comes up on your monitor. Wish they had popup killer back when I was becoming a man.
