Ali,
Hmmm, interesting bug you've found :) Verified that it is still a
bug in trunk and threading2 branch. Fixed in threading2 [0]. You'll be
able to benefit from this fix when the new version of w3af comes out,
a beta should be released before the end of the year. In trunk (the
version you most likely use) it seems to be another bug related to
string delimiters: set userAgent "a b c" will most likely send "a b c"
(with the quotes) in the referrer header, but I did not test it. In
threading2 it seems to work as expected.
Thanks for the bug report, and don't hesitate to send more bugs :)
