I'd be curious how many of you have bent your knees at the following?

The generally accepted minhag is to bow the body and head by Mo’dim,  
without bending the knees. Shulchan Aruch w/Mishnah Brurah 113:7,  
Piskei Tshuvos 113:4

When saying “Va’anachnu Kor’im U’mishtachavim” in Aleinu one should  
bow as he does by Mo’dim. Shulchan Aruch w/Mishnah Brurah 113:3,  
132:MB9 This would clearly mean that you DON'T bow your knees at kor'im.
