Welcome to the murky waters. Yes, the poor end user can start playing
silly user agent string games, this only works if the detection is based
on the html header, not done within the java itself.

On principle I refuse to change my user agent string, especially when
others want to point at analysis of their webserver logs to "prove" the
popularity of various browsers.

Cheers,
