How can I change the title of my Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) window in IE 7.0?

A. By default, the system adds "Windows Internet Explorer" to the end of the IT title bar after the name of the current Web site. However, you can modify this behavior. Start your registry editor (e.g., regedit.exe), and navigate to the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main subkey. From the Edit menu, select New, String Value. Enter the name "Window Title" (don't type the quotes), and press Enter. Double-click the new value, set it to the new string (e.g., "Johns Internet Explorer"), and click OK. Any new IE windows will carry this new title
