for some reason some sites report my browser as 6.0.... (i have IE 8.0)
after googling and searching, i found others have the same problem
because of a strange registry key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\Internet
Settings\User Agent\Post Platform
with the subkey

Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1; SV1)
which i don't know how it got there! i did try the beta at some point of IE 8
but it was not stable, so i un-installed it, and when the real thing came out
i grabbed it

what is ever stranger is that this is a vista32SP1 laptop, which never had
XP (not to mention IE 6)

anyone ?
i mean, i want to delete this registry key, but so many others have it
it should be a fix from microsoft via the auto-update
especially that i know that fresh installations of IE8.0 do not have this
key (at least the ones i saw)

thanx
