You may need to create the /local/html directory if you haven't before.  In this file you will see on line 6 and line 81  (3.8.1) the text for "RT at a glance".  One line is for the title in the main body of the page and the other modifies the browser tab title. You can change it to whatever you like.  I actually changed mine to pull the company name from the RT_Siteconfig file, so it reads " Company Name Request Tracker"  I did this by inserting " [_1] Request Tracker" into lines 6 and 81 where "RT at a glance" used to be.
