Registry?

Your computer is undoubtedly telling the software that IE7 is
installed. The problem is that the software was written before IE7 was
released and doesn't recognize IE7 as valid. Check with the
software's author to see if there's an updated version.

Another possible solution is to download and install the free User
Agent String Utility from Microsoft. It lets you open an IE7 window
that is configured to report its identity to websites as being IE6:
