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" Homer J. Simpson

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. Danny

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