Dear gosonic,

Its very simple to write a code for getting browser information. All you need to do is using the HttpBrowserCapabilities class provided in .NET framework.

Following is the code sample.

Dim bc as HttpBrowserCapabilities
bc = Request.Browser
Response.Write("Type = " + bc.Type + "<br>");
Response.Write("Name = " + bc.Browser + "<br>");
Response.Write("Version = " + bc.Version + "<br>");

Let me know if you face any problems or if you require further information.

...well, since you're obviously doing this locally, my vote would be to get the installed version of ie from the registry.  However, i found this example that also explains the use of shdocvw.dll (which is still valid for ie 6 versions).  The example is in c, but it should give you enough to go in in vb.net.  Let me know, however, if the link doesn't provide enough info and i'll work it out for you.  : )
