Ok, this "bug" or "feature" has frustrated me too much now to ignore. I know of the whole 'useragent' setting change to make the browser firefox compatible on certain websites, but the frustrating thing is that everytime there is a small update in Synaptic, it grabs the firefox- branding package and resets the useragent.
If we all want free OSes and non-ie browsers to florish/compete, these hickups should not happen. New users to systems like this will be turned off for no good reason. Does nobody else use http://www.Hotmail.com ? Hotmail might look like it's working, but once you try and send an email, it sends a blank email with a blank subject line. Warning messages also pop up on http://www.pcfinancial.ca/ and a few more that I don't recall. Most Microsoft sites check the browser. At the very least, stop over writing my 'useragent' settings. Now that is REALLY annoying. -- Shiretoko user agent string breaks compatibilty with major websites https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/397211 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
