Brant,
   I'm running 1.4 here and ran into a problem.  If I used this string,
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)

I got an error saying
"INTERNAL ERROR on Browser End: Expected a version > 5! Version = 4"

So I switched to 

Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1) and mozilla is able
to start just fine.
