I've recently changed ISPs and still have Freeserve heading on my internet browser and the Freeserve logo as the rotating icon in the top right hand corner. I've deleted everything I can from Windows Explorer files but there's loads of stuff in the registry. I'm on Windows ME. Anybody good at tinkering with the registry to change things like this.

In regedit you can do a search for anything with that name and delete it. If you don't know what you're doing though stay away from the registry.

you might look here

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main

In the right pane somewhere I think you'll see the text.
As far as the images go I think there should be a folder with your Corner Graphics in your IE program folder.

It's been a long time since I've cleaned that junk out.
so I can't remember exactly.
