On a PC
After downloading your files, left click on START, then Settings, then Control Panel. Double left click on Sounds. In the EVENTS box, scroll down to "Exit Windows" and click once on it. Click the Browse button and find the goodnite or solong or goodie file that you downloaded and select it, then click OK. In the Events box scroll down to New Mail Notification. Use the Browse button to find the mail file you want. Now scroll down to Start Windows and select the hello wave file. You should now be back on the Sounds Properties window and you can click OK to end.
Note that you can test the sounds before you exit by clicking the black triangle arrow when you have a sound selected.
On a Mac
While you can PLAY "wav" files on a Mac, DO NOT attempt to install them as system sounds. Mac uses a different file format for system sounds (aiff).
