There are good reasons your IE 6 browser says it's IE 6.
Because we know that you are using an ancient (3 years old)
browser that was written with the specific goal of distorting
or violating internet standards, we know better than to send
you standards compliant HTTP responses or standards compliant
HTML because you're browser won't handle them properly.
Take a look in your web server config some time and you'll see
various hacks that are done to send IE the invalid or unrecommended
crap that it expects. That stuff won't work or won't work as well
as in standards compliant browsers, so we can sort them out from
your granny browser and speak proper http to modern browsers.
If you blocked that info you'd make IE unusable because you'd start
getting standards compliant web pages via standards compliant
http and IE would totally choke.
