With this directive you can't remove the "Apache" word.

All you can do is remove the built-in modules and apache version
from been show.

You'll allways have a "Server: Apache" header.

I belive that apache does that to keep beating IIS in the "most used
http server" benchmarks.

But you can allways hack the code.
