I have been looking for a solution to the appName & appVersion problem
with sites like Capitol One and have not found one yet. I can only
find the user_pref("general.useragent.override" but nothing for
appName etc.
Note that you can use the configurable security policies (see
http://www.mozilla.org/projects/security/components/configPolicy.html
for a good intro) in order to either block or allow access to appName
etc using:
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Navigator.appName", "noAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Navigator.appCodeName",
"noAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Navigator.appVersion",
"noAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Navigator.appMinorVersion",
"noAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Navigator.platform", "noAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Navigator.userAgent",
"allAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Navigator.securityPolicy",
"noAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Navigator.cpuClass", "noAccess");
user_pref("capability.policy.default.Navigator.onLine", "noAccess");
Where you can replace "default" with another name defined with other
sites in it - see page referenced above for how to do this.
I wish I could find a way to actually set these values other than
modifying the source code, it would come in useful for sites like
Capitol One's. I guess blocking it (as per above) based on the domain
may be useful for those who wish anonymity, however.
