I want to change the new mail notification sound to my own wave file. Where does Windows put those files?

[Original title: Windows Live Mail]

Using Windows Live Mail Version 2012 (Build 16.4.3522.0110)

New Mail Notification Sound is triggered EVERY time windows live mail checks for new email and there is unread email in my Inbox

Doesn't matter whether there is new mail or not and it is getting far too annoying now.

This has been a long term problem with Windows Live Mail 

The new mail sound notification works as expected for new mail arriving in my inboxes BUT whenever I delete an email from my JUNK mail folder a few seconds later I get the New mail notification sound.

The visual indicator in the taks bar also suggests a new email has arrived but this  is not correct. There are no new or unopened emails in Hotmail or any other other accounts I use in WLM. The new mail notification is not accurate as presently it is constantly giving false alarms.

Please advise.
