I’m running Slackware with Firefox 2.0.0.4 and it somehow wants me to believe that I’m REALLY running internet explorer.
Good idea - Lousy implementation
Perhaps you’re running a User Agent switcher? Or a firewall that strips out the User Agent? That’s the only thing I can think of, on Ubuntu 7.04 in Firefox 2.0.0.6 it doesn’t show up.
I’ll check for an update in the script.
