Help!IE 6 Browser Title Changed

[Jacky Jin]

Hi,there

My IE6 browser title bar changed automatically every time
I visit a new page.Say if I visit www.cnn.com,the bowser
title should come www.cnn.com,while my browser comes
like "www.cnn.com xxxxx.ssddff.ccc".It adds something
strange to the correct title.

Help,please

Hi,

What is that "something strange"?

You can reset the title bar using a registry tweak (I have made a batch file
with it - www.hlrnet.com/ieclear.bat or you can use IE Personalizer -
accesscodes.hypermart.net/product01.html)

If the title bar keeps changin, you might have soem adwre on your machine.
