I believe what David is pointing out is that the issue "king soopers not
compatible with sm" is a browser sniffing issue. I'm currently spoofing:
Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; MSIE 9.0; Windows NT 6.1; Trident/5.0)
and the site doesn't even blink - it loads & keeps on going. Ditto if I
spoof as Chrome or Safari. However, without spoofing I get the update
browser issue... really? I'm spoofing IE 9.
