If this warning is *all* they do depending on the browser identification 
you have no problem.  But if they decide to create different content 
deoending on it, theyre may be problems.  I'd hope that they generate 
standards-complying content for anything that identifies itself as not 
being IE, even though they might still spoonfeed IE clients.
