How does Yahoo determine what version of Internet Explorer I'm using?
Located at the bottom of the Ad Interest Manager page (opt in or out), is a computer specific list that includes my IP Address and other technographic information about my computer, including which Windows Operating System version and the internet browser & version I am currently running. My current browser is IE version 10.0.9200.16750CO. My IE update version is 10.0.12. Yet the Yahoo Technographic Information indicates I am currently using Internet Explorer version 7. How is it that the Yahoo Ad Interest Manager page indicates I am running such an older version of Internet Explorer than the one I am actually using?

Your user agent. Internet explorer is telling Ad Interest Manager that you're using IE7.
