Actually, both of you (EE and Gallagher) have indeed spoofed (faked) Firefox 41.0 to be your user agent. Your user agent strings are > Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10.6; rv:41.0) > Gecko/20100101 Firefox/41.0 SeaMonkey/2.38 and > Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:41.0) Gecko/20100101 > Firefox/41.0 SeaMonkey/2.38 respetively. That is how "Advertise Firefox compatibility" works. I disabled that capability, so my user agent is > Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:41.0) Gecko/20100101 SeaMonkey/2.38 without any mention of Firefox. -- David E.
