I have the following in my .emacs:

(setq ring-bell-function (lambda () ))

That turns off all beeps. I hate beeps of any sort so this works for me, but if you only want to turn off some types of beeps, there are ways to do that too. For example, if you would like to make all the beeps into a visible flash on the screen, you can use:

(setq visible-bell t)

instead of setting the ring-bell-function. Also, check out this similar question.
