A real head-scratcher. window/radio problem.

Ok, this problem just started a few days ago and I'm not real sure whats causing it. When I have the stereo on and I roll up or roll down the driver side window the speakers crackle. When I let off the button, it stops and the stereo plays normal. And it doesn't do it all the time, I'd say it happens about 70% of the time I roll the window up or down. The passenger window does not do this, only the driver. I know its coming from the speakers because when the radio is turned off, it doesn't make the sound.

Any ideas?

Turn radio off or down real low before operating windows

or

Install long tube headers, remove cat and add a very free flowing exhaust.
