text to speech tutorial problem with Firefox

The "text to speech" tutorial plays automatically every time I open
Firefox when I have Speech Recognition active. I can turn off the sound
on the system, but this prevents hearing sounds and vids, etc.

How can I disable the tutorial from playing? I am using Vista Ultimate
64-bit.

Thank you for any help you can give me!

First thing that pops to mind is: do you have a Firefox add-in that may be
causing this?
I use Vista Ultimate, Firefox and speech recognition and do not have this
problem.

Thank you... It says
AVG Safe Search 8.0

HP Smart Web Printing 4.0
Not compatible with Firefox 3.05 (which I have

If the HP thing is the problem, how would I disable it

Right click the add-on, and select disable from the menu.

The HP thing was grayed out. I disabled AVG Safe Search according to
your instructs, and the problem is no more!

Thanks a lot, Tyro. Very much appreciated your help.
