  This is probably a ridiculous question, but here goes.  Is there a simple
  way for a proxy server to
  find out what type of browser is being used on the client?  I would like
  to be able to deny access
  based on what browser is being used for security and/or licensing
  reasons.  I also want to avoid
  operating system dependent methods if possible.
