Description
Keywords and description tags don't appear for my site when using Internet Explorer.
For the homepage the Keywords and Description appear but for inner pages (for which i have set keywords) no tags appear. This problem occurs when using Internet Explorer, it works fine with Firefox.

Really??
Seems quite strange to me as Drupal is server side and doesn't do any "browser sniffing". The HTML Drupal outputs should be the same for all browsers used.
Are you sure it has nothing to do with IE caching things?
Could you test this:
1. create a completely new page, and immediately assign keywords to it. Does IE display these keywords?
2. visit a page without keywords in IE. Then edit the page assigning new keywords or edit the body. After the save, does IE display the updates?
3. Do you have enabled "Page cache"? "Strict" or "Loose"?

I actually investigated a little more.
The keywords or description only appear in both IE and Firefox if the user is registered. For Anoymous users there are no keywords or description tags.

I can't seem to reproduce this bug:
- clean install of drupal 4.6 and nodewords 4.6.
- create a "page" with keywords.
- logout.
- view the new page → keywords and description (teaser) are present.
- downloaded the source of the page with "wget" → keywords and description (teaser) are present.
Can you tell me the exact version of nodewords.module? It should be on the second line and similar to:
// $Id: nodewords.module,v 1.5.2.3 2005/08/08 09:18:09 robrechtj Exp $I thought this was fixed in version 1.5.2.1.

It seems i had an older version. I had used the patch to update it.
It works fine now. I just uploaded the newest version and it seems to be working fine.
Thanks!

No problem.
