Telling me I need IE 4.0 or more. With Thunderhawk(which is an awesome browser) it lets me do it. However, why does Opera and IE not allow me and can I fix it? Thanks

Chances are that the website you are visiting is running a simple Javascript to lookup your browser type and then display an upgrade message if it isn't the latest and greatest. Since PIE reports itself as 3.x or something, if they don't know to check for it, then PIE would end up looking like an old version of IE.
