Two questions, then. If I mute the sound card, how would WindowEyes be heard? Second, how do I mute the sound card?

If it's a soundcard issue, muting the soundcard should make it stop. It sounds to me like a cooling fan issue, and yes, it could be dangerous to the netbook.
I absolutely agree with Vic (and thanks Vic for this tip, I want a little really portible (and cheap) notebook, so I'll look at this); I would always look at these types of laptops over a netbook, which cost almost as much and which are much slower.

Sometimes the buzzing noise can come from the fan. Another cause is the audio driver, see if you can get an update.
The other is caused by the processor over heating. Hard to be more specific without knowing exactly how the buzz sounds.
BTW, if anyone is considering a netbook, HP has an 11 inch laptop which works very nicely. It doesn't use the Atom processor and has more horse power and memory than netbooks. It is only an inch or so larger and doesn't cost much more than a netbook.
Runs WE very nicely with Windows 7.
The model I know of is an HP DM1-3245CA. The CA must mean only available in Canada, but I am sure there are other models for outside of Canada that don't have the bilingual option.
It has a 640GB hard drive. Comes with 4 GB of memory which can be expanded to 8 GB with a total of 2 slots.

Subject: acer netbook
I have an Acer netbook, and at times, especially when I have more than one program running or I’ve left it on for a while, the thing will just start buzzing, and I have to do a manual shutdown. What could be causing this, and is it dangerous to the computer?—aside from the fact that I manually shut it off, of course.
