ASP allows you to read the headers that the client sends back, and in the
headers is a description of the OS being used which is in the
request.ServerVariables collection.

Of the top of my head try:

<%

  response.write key & ": _ " & Request.ServerVariables(key) & "<br>"
next
%>
This will
If I remember rightly you will find it under the HTTP_USER_AGENT key, but
the above script will return everything and you can sort out what you want.
