Bug description: browscap.ini is out of date returns wrong info for IE6.0 and above
Description:
------------
The browscap.ini file is out of date. The highest Microsoft browser
version supported is IE5.0
When it encounters IE6.0 and above it returns erronous info. Calims it's
a netsacpe 4.0 browser that does not support vbscript.
IE 6 has been available for over 1 year. this would imply that other
browsers are also out of date.
This may cause existing code to break.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
echo $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT'] . "<hr />\n";
$browser = get_browser();
foreach ($browser as $name => $value) {
echo "<b>$name</b> $value <br />\n";
}
?>
Expected result:
----------------
correct info for IE 6.0
should be the same as for IE 5.0
Actual result:
--------------
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98)
