Hi,
A particular website I want to access insists on IE6 (or just possibly
it may be satisfied with Netscape Navigator 6), reckoning this is needed
for 128-bit encryption of contributions. I think there's been some discussion about Opera masquerading as IE6,
but is it possible to set Galeon (1.3.3) to masquerade, or failing that,
Konq?

Yes there is. I posted this on the newbie list a couple of weeks ago and it looks like it would apply here also.
Here's the trick for Mozilla:
-Type in "about:config" in the address bar.
-Right click on "Preference Name" and choose New => String
-Enter "general.useragent.override" as the name.
-Enter "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98)" or "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)" as the string.
-Restart Mozilla and you're done.
Can't get that to work on Mozilla 1.4 right click does nothing. However with 1.4 if I click in the body of the "page" I can get it to
allow the edit. Now If I can just get Mozilla to start back up I'll
test it out *grin*

I'll change it to reflect that in the future. It did that to me when I was testing it out, but it didn't do it every time. I'm not quite sure what the magic sequence was to get it to work as I explained it, but what you stated is a more repeatable way to do it.
Revised:
-Type in "about:config" in the address bar.
-Right click just below "Preference Name" and choose New => String
-Enter "general.useragent.override" as the name.
-Enter "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows 98)" or "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)" as the string.
-Restart Mozilla and you're done.
Is that any better?
