Well, it did ask for a modern browser, rather than an expensive update
to a legacy browser. ;-)

Edit your "lib/UI/vars/UI_STD_HEAD" file and find the following lines:

    my $regex = q{__MV_DHTML_BROWSER__}
        || 'MSIE.*5.5|MSIE.*6|Mozilla\W*5|Mozilla.*Gecko';

Change the above to allow your browser version to match, perhaps like
this:

    my $regex = q{__MV_DHTML_BROWSER__}
        || 'MSIE.*5.5|MSIE.*[67]|Mozilla\W*5|Mozilla.*Gecko';

If you don't want to edit that file then you can set a "MV_DHTML_BROWSER"
Variable with the above regex value instead.

If you let me know what works, I'll update the version in CVS.
