The title bar contains the Web site address instead of the Web site title in Windows Server 2003

When you open a new window in Microsoft Internet Explorer and then visit a Web site in that new window, the title bar may contain the Web site address instead of the title of the Web site. For example, when you visit http://www.microsoft.com, the title bar may contain "http://www.microsoft.com" instead of "Microsoft Corporation".
