Comment:

 Hi, John

 Apologies for the late response. My user agent:

 {{{
 Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_9_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML,
 like Gecko) Chrome/43.0.2357.134 Safari/537.36
 }}}

 I was able to reproduce the issue tonight in a testing environment in
 Firefox, as well ($is_IE returned true in FireFox), but was unable to
 reproduce it in Chrome. All browser extensions de-activated in FF at the
 time. When testing after de-activation of plugins, the issue fails to
 reproduce. This site is using a caching plugin...my guess is that
 something is conflicting there. It's probably safe to say this isn't an
 issue in core, and we should probably close this ticket as not a bug.
