Even better, use the latest version of Seamonkey (1.1.11) - which uses
the latest Mozilla core, or any version of Safari on the trixbox site
(specifically: https://buy.trixbox.com/trixbox/entry.cgi ) and it will
tell you that you need to upgrade to a newer browser like Firefox 3.

If you hit the site with IE6 or any version of Firefox 1.x/2.x on any
OS, it doesn't complain at all.

Don't you just love smartarse Open Source sys admins that think they are
doing the world a favour by blocking certain browser types.... 
Especially when using any Mozilla browser will tell you what version of
the core it is by default.
