Try Firefox/3.6 instead of Firefox/3.0.


That seems to have worked so far - thanks.


I spoke too soon - showing 3.6 works for Hotmail, but now Yahoo is
asking me to upgrade. How do I show both 3.0 and 3.6 in about:config?


But isn't any FF 3.x now passe.
You must upgrade with the Joneses. :-) :-| :-(
And anyway this is a SeaMonkey discussion group. :-\



Yes, Rostyslaw, this is a SeaMonkey discussion group, which is why op 
Tom is asking, in effect, what value he should put in his Browser Build 
Identifier string to make both Yahoo and Hotmail work correctly.

 Upgrade to 2.2 (or 2.3) and you *should* be good.

 But then you get duplicate tabs when you click on Home. Bug 369440.
 That's
 keeping me with 2.0.xx
 
 Second that, among other still-present glitches...
 
 Arnie, check how you have your prefs configured for adding the Firefox
 notations to your UA string.  My own SM 2.0.14 (running Mnenhy 0.8.3 for
 expanded header info) is listing your UA as the following:
 
 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.19) Gecko/20110420
 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.16) Gecko/20110319
 Firefox/3.6.16 Firefox /3.0 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US;
 rv:1.9.2.16) Gecko/20110319 Firefox/3.6.16 Firefox/3.0 Mozilla/5.0
 (Windows;
 U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.16) Gecko/20110319 Firefox/3.6.16
 Firefox/3.0
 
 It looks like your SM is sending the UA in quadruplicate, with a
 triplicate of
 the same info prefaced by a UA that only references Gecko info.  This is
 very
 strange.  Compare your UA above to my own below:
 
 Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.1.19) Gecko/20110420
 Lightning/1.0b1 Mnenhy/0.8.3 SeaMonkey/2.0.14
 
 Something appears to be skewed in the way your copy of SM is relaying
 its User
 Agent string.  Definitely need to check that.  I'd say that's probably the
 core of the problem.

Thanks for pointing that out. I'll work on it.

I put them both in and it seems to work for Yahoo and Hotmail. Now Yahoo
and Hotmail thinks you are using Firefox even though you are actually
using Seamonkey 2.0.14

 Gecko/20110319 Firefox/3.6.16 Firefox /3.0

I have three general.useragent.extra in my seamonkey about:config
one for Firefox, one for Seamonkey and one for spoof

I changed them all
