The CoolPreview add-on in Firefox is the culprit. Uninstall this add-on from Firefox will solve the problem. and by the way, today is PACman 30'th birthday. I believe it's something related to this issue.

I disabled and then deleted Cool previews and the Siren stopped as soon as I hit the uninstall button. Why the heck did it happen though? Di cool previews want people to stop using their add on or what?

A solution suggested earlier was to "KILL PACKMAN ON GOOGLE HOME PAGE". I went to google.com; the pacman game was part of the google image. How do I "kill" it at google's home page? Thanks
