Otherwise you need to edit the registry. HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CLASSES\CLSID\{645FF040-5081-101B-9F08-00AA002F954E}
Create a new String Value named "LocalizedString" (without quotes) double click it 
and enter name you want in Value Data. Log off then back on, viola! BE SURE TO BACK 
UP REGISTRY BEFORE THIS JUST IN CASE!!!
