I advise you to use Contains method on Request.UserAgent

if (Request.UserAgent.Contains("MSIE 7.0"))
{
    // Internet Explorer 7
}
else if (Request.UserAgent.Contains("MSIE 8.0"))
{
    // Internet Explorer 8
}

This is what I get from Request.Headers["User-Agent"]: "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.3; WOW64; Trident/7.0; rv:11.0) like Gecko"

Another option if you want <= 8:

Request.Browser.Browser == "IE" && Request.Browser.MajorVersion <= 8;
