My company has a few web apps which require Internet Explorer. Rather than allow users to use other browsers (which would cause errors) there is a browser check when the user pulls up the login screen, and if they are not using IE they get a message saying to install it, or what have you.
Recently we started running into some issues whereas some users are using IE7 but failing the browser check. Useragentstring.com would show the following: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US; rv:1.8.1.18) Gecko/20081029 Firefox/2.0.0.18.
That user string does not appear in the registry of the affected PCs. I've looked in the normal locations as well as searched the registry for key parts of the above string but they were not found. Other than the registry, where could this string be pulled from?
