IE6 SP2 - Incomplete Title Bar

[John A. Conrad]

Very recently, IE6 SP2 stopped displaying the full title bar. Only the first
character of the title appears. Title appearance is important in my website
development. Thoughts anybody? Perhaps a registry corruption?

Hi,
This article is getting old- you probably aren't running any of the listed
programs
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=225123

But, another program is probably causing this problem with IE. You should
check for malware.
See: Dealing with Unwanted Spyware and Parasites:
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm
Also note the security tips and other important information on that page.

Or, a legitimate program may be causing this. Disable (for diagnostic
purposes) programs such as pop-up blockers, security, anti-virus, etc. Take
a look at any program that might be interacting with IE. You may have to
reinstall, or not reinstall, a program.

Hope this helps,
Don

Thanks Don,

The MS URL referred to IconLock which I was running. After uninstalling it,
the title bar was ok. Thanks again.
