Hi all,

A client has presented me with a problem that I can't seem to 
resolve.  They want to detect whether the web client has an application 
called SmartForce Player installed.  This is easy under NN, as it appears 
in the mimeTypes array as "application/x-ckd".  However, I've been unable 
to find the object name that I might use under IE to detect it there.

Has anyone else dealt with the SmartForce Player?  (http://www.smartforce.com)

By the way, thanks to Peter-Paul Koch for the recent post on detecting 
Flash--it works great!

TIA,
--Doug
