Hi all. I know there have been a lot of posts regarding Links, however I
don't recall seeing anything like how does one fake an IE user agent? Like
I've seen several formats, and as far as I know there is no real standard.
I've seen things like IE6.0 Windows 95, and others. I guess it just comes
down to reading script source and looking for what it expects?
Links-2.1PRE9 works very well, except for it chokes when an
window_onload() is called. Hmmm. So i was looking into sending the site I
am trying to access a fake useragent header and perhaps it might work. Has
anyone successfully done this? Thanks!

May you code in the power of the source,
may the kernel, libraries, and utilities be with you,
throughout all distributions until the end of the epoch.
