If you apply Q312461 (MS01-055) patch to your IE 5.5 SP2 / 6,
your IE shows patch information into HTTP_USER_AGENT as:
IE 6:
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.0; Q312461)
IE 5.5 SP2:
Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.5; Windows NT 5.0; T312461)
You can find vulnerable IE 5.5/6 very easily...
