We use custom inventory to look at file location and properties.

We were deploying IE7 and this method did not work for us as it was a bit slow.

We used custom inventory that looked for the file

iexplore.exe

in C:\Program Files\Internet Explorer\

and collected file properties.

This custom inventory is very light and can be run with very aggressive
schedule  and does not cause any performance issue on client pc on NS server.

Exclude filter : IE7-8
