I clicked on the live broadcast link for BBC radio 4. Despite exiting the webpage, restarting the computer and shutting down and reopening, the braodcast continues. I cannot find a way to shut it off. I have tried reopening the BBC website, clicking on the live braodcast link and then closing it. I get 2 almost similtanteous broadcasts and when I click the close button only one switches off. Please help!

Most unusual.

Try a safe boot:

Open Activity Monitor and see if you can identify any application that may be the culprit. If so, click on it and then the "Quit Process' icon on the menu bar.

Ciao.

I wonder if you've installed it as a dashboard widget. Click on the Dashboard icon in your Dock, or go into Spaces and then move to the Dashboard, and if there's a rogue radio widget there, remove it.
