Because sometimes a site will check the browser ID, and return different results depending on the result (no images to text only browsers, for example). When IE was being developed, they found it was being blocked from sites that it would be able to display, because the sites were looking for Mozilla in the browser string >3) What is 'compatibe'? It means that it's supposed to work in the same way as the thing it's compatible with. MSIE 5.0 is compatible with Netscape 4 because it can display content designed for Netscape 4. >4) Howcome MSIE 5.0 and AOL 5.0 appear together on the same request? Because, the user has installed the AOL5.0 software, and it makes some use of IE, so it adds its "brand" to the browser.
