Solution: Internet Explorer detected as mobile device

Problem description:

"Internet Explorer redirects to mobile layout web site"
"Some websites are connecting to mobile version"
Why am I getting mobile sites? I'm using my desktop PC!

Solution: (as found in this thread)

1. In the Windows registry navigate to the following key:
   HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings\5.0\User Agent\Post Platform
2. Remove the entry "Creative AutoUpdate v1.40.01"
3. Close all Internet Explorer windows.

Background:
Some websites are scanning the user agent string for the word "PDA", unfortunately the word "Update", contains PDA. Thus, those websites present their mobile versions instead.
