This is clearly a bug in a web-site and not the browser, since the web-site is supposed to be testing for specific functionality, instead of any specific browsers. Please complain to site owners. Nonetheless, if you require modification of the user-agent string, IIRC, this could be adjusted in Mozilla web-browsers in about:config with the general.useragent.override variable (or some other variables underneath general.useragent, if you don't require complete user-agent string overwriting).
