I'd like to know if there is a way to turn off the message sound when a new message comes in.  I know I can turn the volume off but if I am listening to music and don't want the sound every time a message is sent to me - is there a way???

Thanks.

MSN Messenger Main Window > Tools > Options > Alerts & Sounds > untick "play a sound when contacts sign in or send a message"

Thank you very much - I never even noticed this option.
