You can use the BROWALIAS function to change how a user-agent is recognized to manage grouping of browsers. However, if you look at you log files (or the Browser Report) I think you'll see that most of the items you identify as "the same" really are not. e.g. "iexplore.exe" is more likely a robot (poorly) attempting to masquerade as MSIE than an actual release of MSIE.

In The Browser Summary section, it would seem that some browsers are not
being combined together: 10 and 14.  Also, this section seems to be
case-sensitive, since 41 and 61 are the same.  Technically, 1, 41, 61 and 63
should all be grouped.  30 and 67 could also be combined. 6 and 31 should be
combined.  Not sure what the difference is between 4 and 5?  35 and 80
should be grouped under one with version number changes if available.
