You can put conditional comments in the HEAD tag to create variables that indicate if you have an IE browser.

<script type="text/javascript">
    var supportedBrowser = 1;
</script>
<!--[if lte IE 8]><script>var supportedBrowser=0;</script><![endif]-->

Now if you do not have an IE browser or if you have IE8 or lower, supportedBrowser == 0, so you can use a simple if-statement:

if(supportedBrowser != 1){   
    // do whatever you want here... 
}

I suggest you to check $.support which stands for:

A collection of properties that represent the presence of different browser features or bugs. Primarily intended for jQuery's internal use; specific properties may be removed when they are no longer needed internally to improve page startup performance.

Previously there was $.browser property which was useful for checking the browser version. However, nowadays it is deprecated due to inconsistency.
