This is stored in the program, and I doubt you can change it :)

if it is a exe or dll that is pretty easy to hack.

problem is i don't exactly know where it is located.

Well, yes, it's the exe or dll it's stored in (for QuickTime it's QTTask.exe), but I'm not sure if it's just a string which you can change with a program like Resource Hacker (I just opened a few programs with Resource Hacker, and you can change it for DU Meter, but I couldn't find the string in mIRC).

only possible way i see this, is if you used Win32Dasm and made a patch program in like C++ to change it... its a bit much in my opinion, and you would have to disassemble every program you want to change...

I'm pretty sure the "tooltips" are programmed directly in the source so things like resource hacker may not be able to change it.. i could be wrong.. *opens QTTask.exe in Resource hacker now*
