What are the User Agents of some old browsers?

I want to serve mobile content for browsers older than IE7. All I could find on Google was that the User Agent for IE 6 is "MSIE 6". What about IE 5 and below? And Netscape and early versions of FF and Opera?

This seems like a pretty exhaustive list. - Browser ID Strings (aka User Agent ID)

If you want to serve the same content but styled differently a better approach is CSS media queries.

To support really old browsers from microsoft conditional comments are easy to implement as well.

Any older than that I would strongly recommend not doing anything for. On the contrary suggest to those users to upgrade to newer browsers.

You can still find user agent strings on sites like http://www.user-agents.org/

user-agents.org has a pretty comprehensive list of user agents including browsers, spiders, robots and crawlers.
