I'm sorry but iPhones DON'T report themselfs to be IE. Nor any other smart
phone by default (assuming its not running windows).

And here is your browser link..
http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_stats.asp

But from browsers we can still tell the op (assuming the arnt spoofing,
which most people wouldn't spoof their OS)
So here is another link claiming 80% are windows users.
http://www.w3schools.com/browsers/browsers_os.asp

Have fun
