How to remove the Security Zone from Windows Explorer status bar

I'm navigating through files on one of my computers with a wireless keyboard, only. Since no mouse is used, and the distance to the screen is quite significant I had to increase the font size significantly. But as a side effect the amount of text displayed in the Windows Explorer status bars is quite small. So, if I could remove or reduce the security zone field on the status bar, I would be able to see much longer tool tip text messages.

Since the Windows XP does not seem to be able to report the durations and resolutions of .mkv and .mp4 video files in tooltips, I had to add MediaInfo utility. The problem is, it is not possible to reformat the tooltips it generates to fit the small amount of display space, I have. So, I'm looking for a way to increase the length of tool tip text strings in the Windows Explorer status bar.

It is possible to display the tool tips outside of the status bar, but it seems to be less convenient, for me.
