I think I have seen this before somewhere. Try this logic, see if it works
1.Store window.navigator.userAgent.indexOf("MSIE ") in some variable x
2.If it is IE, then the string would be of the nature "MSIE 6.0"
3.Check the substring starting from x+5 (so that you skip "MSIE ") and check
for "."
4.The value before that "." should give you version number
5.If it is greater than 6, it is IE 6.0
