View Full Version : SP2 change in IE Title Bar

Installed SP2, everything working OK so far, even have the perceived
speed-up of Windows in general (placebo effect or not, it's enjoyable).
One odd change: In the IE Title Bar, where it used to just have the name of
the site, now it has the URL and the name. For example, when I go to CNET,
the title bar says:
http://www.cnet.com - CNET.com - Microsoft Internet Explorer
A minor thing, but I can't find a way to turn off the URL display. Any
ideas?

You're looking for an option in IE called "Show Friendly URL's".
Click Tools, Internet Options, Advanced.,

Thanks for the suggestion, but it still shows the URL in the IE Title Bar,
whether or not the "show Friendly URL's" option is checked. Probably some
sort of registry thing.
