I'd be willing to bet - if you look at the loading icon on those computers - it's probably not the standard one either. Most of the time, when ISP's provide users with these custom-built IE's, they have custom loading icons, too. When I used the MSN build of IE, IIRC, the loading icon was a butterfly, instead of the rotating earth (it's been so long since I've used IE at all, I'm not 100% sure about that).
Anyway - you'd probably need to search the M$ web site for development tools that would allow you to alter IE.

Pretty savvy knowledge of IE for someone who hates them so much!
