Received two emails about browser and os detection stating that it doesn't detect some stuff correctly.

Your site says that I´m using Netscape 6 & Windows  NT , that´s totally
wrong. I´m using Safari and Mac OS X?

I'm using version 7.1 of wwf.

Browser detection has been changed for the next version to cover more browsers and operating systems, but as I only have a PC with Win XP Pro on it, it is very difficult to test if it detects other Operating Systems correctly.

Have a look in the active users page on this forum and see if it is correctly detecting your operating system.

For me: Linux   Konqueror
Also correct.

Some sites don't allow unusual browsers. Because of this,
a lot of these browsers have an option to tell the site that
they are Internet Explorer running on Windows - I don't
know if this can be done on Safari, but it might be worth
looking into.
