"My Computer" Rename

I want to rename the "My Computer" thingy (what is that tree level called?) in my project (picture below). I can't find a way to do it. Is this even possible? (If not, why?)

(I'm just trying to get rid of spaces in the URL for my remote VI's.)

I don't think you can rename My Computer, but why not just parse in a %20?

An annoyed user wanted me to try to remove the spaces completely.

SOL, isn't he? 😛

Edit: Anyway, thanks for answering.

If it's just for a url could you use the host file, or add your computer to a DNS of some kind (I've not too familiar with remote panels, so I could be wrong here). I would guess the name "My Computer" points to 127.0.0.1, since nothing else makes sense to me (Unless LabVIEW has a separate name system, even then "My Computer" seems like a bad name for a remote machine).

Oh, I can change the URL in the web publishing tool... Oops.

;^_^

Never mind. Thanks for the replies, though.
