Does your Mac make a squealing sound during startup? If you have a
Performa or Power Macintosh 52xx/53xx/62xx/63xx series computer running
Mac OS 8.1, this squealing occurs when the system volume is set to an
even numbered value (2, 4, or 6).

"Squealer" is an AppleScript applet which automatically sets your volume
to an odd number (3) to avoid the problem. Simply put "Squealer" into
your Shutdown Items folder (which is inside your System Folder) and
you'll never have to suffer through that annoying squeal again.

"Squealer" is freeware.
