Individual volume on computers
I was wondering. Is it possible, with or without hardware so I can browse the internet without volume, for listen to music at the same times on Itunes, and hear it. Basically, is it possible to not here sounds on the internet without turning my whole computer volume off?
Google was no help.

Strange, I never really needed to do that before! You learn something new every day.
Here's How:
Open Your Control Panel
The easiest way to open the Control Panel is to click on "Start" and then click on "Control Panel."Open the Internet Options
Double click on "Internet Options" to open that section of the Control Panel.Select the "Advanced" Tab

Scroll through the options until you see the section called "Multimedia."Deselect the Play Sounds Option
Click to un-check the option called "Play Sounds in Webpages." This will turn off all sounds in your internet browsers.Turn Sounds On Again When You're Finished Sweeping
