When opening certain webpages firefox makes a "Fwip"? sound, not sure how to describe it but it is rather annoying, what does it mean and how can I get rid of it?

Doesn't always do it, sometimes a webpage will do it when it loads, sometimes it won't, and sometimes reloading a webpage that makes the sound will require multiple refreshes for it to happen, while other times it'll happen every load. Did not have this sound before firefox 5.0 update.

I was having the same issue and discovered I must have accidentally toggled on an option of the NoScript addon I use. If you are using NoScript, click the little icon in the lower right corner and there is a toggle option named 'Audio feedback when scripts are blocked' (it's also be toggled on and off in the options menu of NoScript).
Hopefully this is also what is causing your noise.
