DOH!  I meant to ask Subir to do that when I posted the message that the
archive was up, and then I forgot to post the message, and then when I
did, I forgot to ask!  Man, I am so forgetful I just keep forgetting what
I was going to... :)

Do you forsee any chance of the string changing to something like Tom
posted the other day "Mozilla/2.0 (compatible; X11; Lynx 2.6)" or
something similar?  I didn't like the X11 part, but I guess that's the
closest recognizable thing to unix.  MSIE up through 3.01 is identifying
itself in this way, but I have had entries in my log of "Microsoft
Internet Explorer/4.40.308 (Windows 95)". hmmm...
