What is to do?
You should read the PHP manual concerning [man]PCRE[/man]. Anyway, the problem is that your regex pattern does not have the appropriate delimiters, e.g., '/Win95/' instead of just 'Win95'. That said, if you are just trying to compare strings for equality then regex is overkill. Just use:
if ($ua === 'Win95') {Or if you need to find that string within a larger string:
if(strpos($ua, 'Win95') !== false) // important to use "!==", not just "!="
{
// it's Win95
}
And you can change it to stripos() if you want it to be case-insensitive.

Thanks, no more warning on line 43
perhaps you can help also here:

That is great. Thank you :-)

As the message states, the function is deprecated, meaning it is old and no longer supported, and that there is a better function. To my knowledge all the ereg functions are deprecated in favour of preg functions.
Also as NogDog suggested, if you're simply looking for a string within another string, you can use strpos() or stripos() for case-insensitivity:
else if (stripos($ua, 'BSD') !== false) // important to use "!==", not just "!="
{
//It's BSD
}
