Enclosed is a modified browser.wddx to recognize IE 6.0
for Windows NT 4.0, NT 5.0 (Win2K), and Windows 98 clients.
I don't have Windows ME or Windows XP so I don't know
what their user agent signature might look like.

This is a simplistic fix to recognize IE 6.0 in that I copied the
IE 5.01 entries and made no attempt to better describe any
new capabilities in IE 6.0. This may also not handle IE 6.0
if you don't have the fix installed described in Microsoft Knowledge
Base question Q312461 since that number is part of the user_agent
string. I would bet older non-fixed IE 6.0's lacked that part of the
string.

This also will not help matters that were being
discussed earlier about areas of Spectra where explicit checks
are made for MSIE 5. They will still break if MSIE 6 is what is
being returned.

I know this list cannot handle attachments but I copied the
original querier so he can get the copy. I will post a copy
over on spectrasource for others who might want it.
