Snaps and pops on playback

Question

Using newly installed Logic Express 8 and am getting snaps and pops on playback, that are somewhat irregular -- occur at different times when repeating playback -- and don't appear in the waveform. Haven't bounced a file yet, so don't know if they occur in the final, but am wondering what this is about. Tried changing clock source....doesn't seem to matter.

For more info about the special tags needed to embed QuickTime content. Some of these tags can be use to "force" the QuickTime plugin which will prevent many users from "keeping a copy" of your work.
As it stands now, all any page visitor has to do is use the browsers "Save" to keep a copy of your work.
If you make a "page" for your files you can use the QT plug-in to help "control" the saving of your files.
You could also use some simple javascript that would open your music in a new browser window. In the new window you get some control over the plug-in used to play your music. A few extra tags in the html page code are all that is required.

One of my pages that uses javascript to "present" movies in a new window. You could set the height and width to the simple 16X whatever of your audio files. But they would only play if the QuickTime plug-in is also installed.
So. A click on one of your audio links in your current page would open a new "window" (you set the size and could even add other page elements like images) and your page visitors get to listen to the .mp3 file.
But it would take the upgrade to QuickTime Pro for most of your visitors to "borrow" your work.
