  var ieversion = -1;

  if (navigator.appName == 'Microsoft Internet Explorer' ) {

    if (new RegExp("MSIE ([0-9]{1,}[\.0-9]{0,})").exec(navigator.userAgent) != null) {

      ieversion = parseFloat(regExp.$1);

      if (ieversion >= 7) {

        var embed = document.createElement("object");
        embed.setAttribute("type","application/x-informationCard");
        return ("" + embed.issuerPolicy != "undefined" && embed.isInstalled);

      }

      if (ieversion < 0 && navigator.mimeTypes && navigator.mimeTypes.length) {

        var handler = navigator.mimeTypes['application/x-informationCard'];

        if (handler && handler.enabledPlugin)
        return true;

        if (document.addEventListener) {

          var event = document.createEvent("Events");
          event.initEvent("IdentitySelectorAvailable",true,true);
          top.dispatchEvent(event);

          if (top.IdentitySelectorAvailable == true) return true;

        }

      }

    return false;
