The presence of "Firefox/3.5" in the string causes the server to log your visit as if by the Firefox 3.5 browser. Unless a human scans through a multitude of raw data (unlikely), no one will know that you were actually using SeaMonkey 2.0. -- David E. Ross <http://www.rossde.com/> Go to Mozdev at <http://www.mozdev.org/> for quick access to extensions for Firefox, Thunderbird, SeaMonkey, and other Mozilla-related applications. You can access Mozdev much more quickly than you can Mozilla Add-Ons. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
