Particularly, but apparently not only, those using CoolPreviews with Firefox. I never went near any Google website; never saw anything about the stupid game. But the game sound effects came crashing in, and no matter what I did, short of turning the sound completely off, they just kept blasting unabated through my speakers. A real problem if you were trying to use the computer for music, radio, Youtube, skype, etc. I wasted most of this nice Auckland Saturday morning trying to get rid of the blasted noise. A major cock-up by Google! I suggest you take a look for “Pacman Google” and see what it did to thousands of people like me who simply started their web browser this morning.
