    I feel sympathy for you, it's horrible :D

    Can you see the moving equalizer bars in the lower left hand corner? Click on it and press the pause symbol. That should silence it.

    Disclaimer: I just installed the app to help. I doesn't mean I like JLS ;)

    So you did - and I had a look at he APP - that is an annoying little feature. Now removed the programme.

    Many thanks - risked extremely sore ears again and went back in and tried this and it works. Brilliant-peace at last.

    Thanks you everyone for help and suggestions.
