Hi, I was helping someone setup a wlan, and came across this.The audio played about 6 times then the wireless connection was lost.

They have bulldog running, and that did not find anything. Anyone assist?
Thanks for looking.

i'd scan with a good spyware scanner such as a-squared, superantispyware or malwarebytes anti-malware scanner.  all free and may find something.

it doesn't seem like a virus but maybe more like adware or similer.

maybe.  spyware is sometimes known to stop you accessing specific sites that you would go to to download anti-spyware software so i guess anything is possible.  wont hurt to try.
