Previous machine name in Profiler

I changed the machine name yesterday (from Machine1 to Server1).
I'd delete the SQL server registration in Enterprise Manager and
register again with the new server name - Server1.
Everything run correctly.
But when I open the Profiler, create a new trace, I use (local) when
"Connect to SQL Server" prompted. After I click "OK", I saw my old
machine name "Machine1" in "Trace SQL Server" field under the "General"
tab. Everytime I have to change that server name to my new machine name
in order to use the profiler.
Does anyone knows how to change that default to my new machine name?
(It didn't run when I use the old machine name)
Thanks.

---
sp_dropserver 'Machine1'
go
sp_addserver 'Server1', 'local'

But the problem still remain.
I tried to add in alias under Client/Network Utility, but still the
same, problem remain.
Peter CCH|||OK, got it.
Have to restart the SQL Server in order to take effect.
Thanks.
