Winamp keeps waking up my cat!

Oh Lord, please let me not sound like a dumbass...



Every morning at 9:00 Winamp plays 'Chica Me Tipo - Sublime' - great song and all, but I can't seem to figure out why its doing this.

Someone please tell me, is there some sort of "alarm clock" feature in Winamp? Even if Winamp isn't running, it will start itself and play this song.

I thought it had something to do with MEXP (which is a very cool plug-in by the way), but I uninstalled it and still the same problem.

Its Winamp version 2.80 on Win98.

thoughts?

I doubt it's something internal to WinAMP. My guess is you have a scheduled task (in the Control Panel) that's doing it, or some other calendar/alarm clock util that's choosing to play the MP3.

Yeah, maybe the cat wants a 9am wakeup call. Got to go see a man about teasing a dog and that sort of thing...

Well, my webcam wakes up my rabbits. I suppose it makes some sound too high for me to hear. Or then the rabbits just sense that they are being watched

If it had been the cat, it would be more like 5AM or some other ungodly hour. They normally don't sleep in that late.

Remember, Cats don't have owners. They have staff.
