In the installation title bar, the words "UNKNOWN PUBLISHER" appear instead of the organization name when you install an Internet Explorer 7 package in Windows XP or in Windows Server 2003

Consider the following scenario:

• You install the Microsoft Internet Explorer Administration Kit 7 (IEAK 7) on a computer that is running Microsoft Windows XP or Microsoft Windows Server 2003.
• When you install IEAK 7, you specify an organization name that is longer than 15 characters on the Windows Internet Explorer 7 setup page.
• You run the IEAK 7 customization wizard to create an Internet Explorer 7 package.

In this scenario, in the installation title bar, the words "UNKNOWN PUBLISHER" appear instead of the organization name that you specified when you install the Internet Explorer 7 package.

This problem occurs because the Internet Explorer 7 setup page limits the organization name to 15 characters.
