Nope, but .*MSIE 6.0.* would work ... it's just a standard regexp, I don't know if it has to be anchored (i.e. the leading and trailing metas), you might get away with just MSIE (and you might have to quote the space character too ... MSIE\ 6.0 - or, if that fails because the parser is whitespace sensitive, MSIE.6.0 ...) I suppose I could always rtfm ... Based on your current configuration, you could always identify the allowed browser, and use the ! to negate ... i.e., rewrite if the browser is NOT mine ... As well as http://httpd.apache.org/docs/mod/mod_rewrite.html#RewriteRule see http://httpd.apache.org/docs/misc/rewriteguide.html for specific examples of how to perform common tasks, such as :- Proxy Deny Description: How can we forbid a certain host or even a user of a special host from using the Apache proxy? Solution: We first have to make sure mod_rewrite is below(!) mod_proxy in the Configuration file when compiling the Apache webserver. This way it gets called _before_ mod_proxy. Then we configure the following for a host-dependend deny... RewriteCond %{REMOTE_HOST} ^badhost\.mydomain\.com$ RewriteRule !^http://[^/.]\.mydomain.com.* - [F] ...and this one for a [EMAIL PROTECTED] deny: RewriteCond [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] RewriteRule !^http://[^/.]\.mydomain.com.* - [F] -jim
