Can you get a sound alert for when you receive a pm?

No; there i no point for having a sound alert since the user is required to refresh the page to detect new Private Messages. It is possible to have a sound alert, but even then, the user will still have to refresh the page.

This is because the forum is a web-based software, unlike client-based softwares like MSN/Yahoo messengers.
