Trying to find out where is Internet Explorer report in NS 7.1 (that previously exist on Altiris 6) got this "solution":

You can use this report -->Discovery and Inventory --> Inventory --> Cross-Platform --> Software/Applications --> General Software -->  "Audit Software Search report"

To get Internet Explorer installed version you must specify:

File Name: iexplore.exe

Manufacturer: microsoft%

This "solution" can by cloned (by cloning reports) and changed, fixing Parameters; to get your custom SOFTWARE VERSION REPORT OF YOUR INSTALLED APPS.

Hope this helps the newcomers to NS 7.x version.

Thanks,
Eugenio
