Question How to get rid of the added word in the title after running vbs script?

I made a system restore point on my computer then ran tazir's script late last night to test it out for a friend (I actually did not have the Hacked by Godzilla virus on my computer). Then, later someone else was using my computer and thought I had gotten a virus that added "Goodbye" to my IE title bar. I forgot that I had changed the additional window title to "Goodbye" by running his script. So then I turned off system restore (thinking I had a virus and not wanting to get my restore points infected) and proceeded to run every anti virus and anti spyware scan I could manage before realizing that the added "Goodbye" was not a virus at all but just the result of running this script. Unfortunately, because I deleted my restore point, I have no idea now how to return to the original settings for the IE Window title (without any addition dashes or words). I tried leaving this line blank (removing the word "Goodbye") at the end like this:

wshshell.RegWrite "HKCU\software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\Window Title"

but there is still a dash " - " there at the end of the IE title bar. For example, my current IE title bar reads:

How do I get rid of any addition to the title bar completely? I find that dash very annoying.

Thanks for all the help on this forum. It really helped get rid of the Hacked by Godzilla virus effectively.

Peace
