Browser detection is unreliable for minority browsers because of past
abuses of browser detection.  They to tend identify as IE to avoid outright
discrimination by web sites, or use of out of date browsercap databases.
Even IE was once in this category, which is why IE claims to be Netscape's
Mozilla - then, as a comment, says what it really is, making a nonsense
of the whole User Agent part of the HTTP protocol.
