Determine the version of IE

[Andy Welcomer]

Hello Everyone,

I was wondering does anyone how the versions of IE are represented in the
registry? I want to write a query to check for IE version.

I'm looking at the following key
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer
Reg_SZ: Version

For my machine which has 6 SP1 the value is 6.0.2800.1106.

Does anyone know or could tell me were I could get the keys for the other
versions?

Thanks.

Probably ask them in an IE group.
