If I use My Computer the line across the top of the window reads C:\whatever
folder I'm at.
If I use Explorer the same line reads C:\whatever folder I'm at - Microsoft
Internet Explorer provided by so & so. The same message as when I use IE.
I've found the key that IE gets this from, but I can't locate where Explorer
is told to use it.

John & Doug,
Thanks for the responses. I tried both, but it didn't do what I was looking
for.
The branding is gone on both Windows Explorer & IE, bit Explorer is still
using the IE titles.
My Explorer window now reads Drive:\Folder\File - Microsoft Internet
Explorer
I'd like it to read the same as if I used My Computer; just
Drive:\Folder\File
Something is telling Windows Explorer to use an Internet Explorer string,
but I can't track down where that something is.
