Can I get rid of that annoying 'Provided by Freeserve' bit on the IE title bar ?

Reload ie from another disc and have that title on top or download ie6 from msn and have the microsoft thing at the top.

IE5 was

To change the title bar branding of IE5 go to the registry entry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main either delete Window Title in the right pane, or edit the text string to read as you would prefer. Restart IE.

To return the animated icon to Microsoft's default spinning globe go to the registry entry HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Toolbar edit both BrandBitmap and SmBrandBitmap from their existing entries, and substitute the string 'Default' (or leaving it blank seems to work too). You could change it to other images (one for the small and large icon options) but make sure the image is small enough, the menu bar line will expand to fit the specified image. Restart IE.

Don't know if this is the same on 6. Registry editing at your own risk :D

I've downloaded IE6 and it's still there !

How do I edit the Registry ?

OK - worked that out c:\windows\regedit

Tried the edits but it's still there ....... bloody thing !

Ah - then I have to re-boot - should have guessed that much !

Thanks Silent Monkey

Had me worried there. Hadn't done it since early days of IE5 and don't remember having to reboot, but hey if it works.
