BrowserHawk *is* using client-side script... that's the only way to 
get some of that info out of the current browsers... note this:

http://www.browserhawk.com/showbrow.asp

here's just one of the JS script blocks at the top of that page:

<script language="JavaScript">

<!--
function bhawkTest() {
  var bhfv = testFl();
  var je = 0;
  if (navigator.javaEnabled()) {je = 1;}
  var bhdir = isHere('application/x-director', 'Director', 'dcr');
  var bhqt = isHere('video/quicktime', 'QuickTime', 'mov');
  var bhsv = isHere('image/svg', 'Adobe SVG', 'svg');
  var bhcr = isHere('application/x-ssreportviewer-
plugin;version=7.0.100.1','Seagate Software Report', '');
  var bhvp = isHere('application/x-mtx','MetaStream', 'mtx');
  var bhaw = isHere('application/x-authorware-map','Authorware', 
'aam');

  var bhcx = isHere('application/x-ica','Citrix ICA', 'ica');
  var bhmp = isHere('application/x-mplayer2', 'Windows Media', '');
  if (!bhmp) bhmp = isHere('application/x-drm', 'Windows Media', '');
  var bhip = isHere('application/x-ipix', 'iPIX', 'ipx');
  var d = new Date();
  var bhtz = 4 - (d.getTimezoneOffset()/60);
  var bhdt = escape(d.toLocaleString());
  var bhdm = Date.parse(d.toGMTString());
   var bhjp = plugV('Java Plug', 1);
   var bhlu = navigator.language.toLowerCase();
  var rs = 
"bhfv="+bhfv+"&bhje="+je+"&bhdv="+bhdir+"&bhqt="+bhqt+"&bhsv

  if (document.cookie.indexOf("bhCookieSess=1") != -1) {
    document.cookie = "bhResults="+rs+"; path=/";
    document.cookie = "bhPrevResults="+rs+"; path=/";
    if (document.cookie.indexOf("bhResults") != -1)
      self.location.replace("/showbrow.asp?bhcp=1"); 
    else self.location.replace("/showbrow.asp?"+rs+"&bhqs=1");
  }
  else self.location.replace("/showbrow.asp?"+rs+"&bhqs=1");
