It seems as if OWA is not detecting Internet Explorer and thus giving me the Basic OWA mode. Rick

What the heck is "U;" ? Alexa Toolbar is probably superfluous. You could try uninstalling it to see if that gets rid of the U: Whatever it is your User-Agent string is being interpreted as Netscape4 which means that it doesn't support ActiveX which explains why your OWA is not working. Try using the User Agent Picker or one of the reg hacks from that page if you can't figure out a way to make it better. FWIW here is what I have after installing .NET 3.5 and I didn't notice any difference as a result of it. However, I don't have an OWA account to test.
