do I put in the "NOT" I copied it exactly as you wrote it and I assume
that was the way it was supposed to be but I just was not sure about the
"NOT" Thanks again for taking the time.

what is the command and where do I install it?
If I remember it is in the about: config and I
have to enter a command making the web site think
I am using Fire Fox while I am using Sea Monkey
Would you please post it. Thanks for assistance
about:config --->
New string: general.useragent.extra.firefox - user set - string - NOT
Firefox/2.0.0.12
or other version like 3.5
The "NOT" is so that anyone (live person, not software) looking at the
server log will see that SeaMonkey actually displayed the page.
I would suggest, however, that you use an extension such as PrefBar or
User Agent Switcher and delete the change to about:config. These
extensions allow you to "spoof" Firefox or other browsers as needed
without permanently spoofing. Thus, other Web sites that work okay with
SeaMonkey will continue to have SeaMonkey logged when you visit them.
Does "as needed" really work right? Or does that mean "after you manually enter
a list of sites to spoof?"
I avoid extensions, one more chance to do some unscheduled debugging. But having
a profile with the bookmarks of sites needing Firefox and having the config
option set makes sense and is nice and portable to another machine.
