Internet Explorer provided by...
      #8303 - Sat Aug 30 2003 08:51 AM

The top part of my Internet Explorer window has the title page followed by "- Microsoft Internet Explorer provided by BT openworld". This extra bit of information only put in an appearance after some changes ("improvements") that my ISP got me to implement a few months ago.
This is only a minor irritation, but I would like to remove these words. Can it be done?

Yes it can. Click on start then run & type in REGEDIT. Go to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main". Change "Window Title" to whatever you want (or just remove the "provided by" part".
Maybe for once someone will call me "Sir" without adding "you're making a scene"

Gaze upon your branded logo for the last time.
Close all browser windows.
Go to Start, choose Run, and type or paste "rundll32 iedkcs32.dll,Clear" without the quotes.
Hit Enter.
Open a browser window. Jump with joy as you gaze upon your default browser branding which will now be the MS one.

Thanks ever so much, I now have what I want, at least at the top of my browser window. There were two methods suggested and I happened to use the one from Homer, but I am sure Byron's method would be effective too.

Thanks Homer,
I am having a very good day. All my problems on and off the computer are going away today, as a result of seeking help and finding it.

<wishes his post was as humourous as Byron's>

Can this method be reversed?

It took off more than the ad? Thanks for the reply.
