Spoofing Browser

Rate the article

Comment the article

First I'm not sure if I can rate this tutorial into Linux, since the concerned here is Mozilla; or more exactly Gecko programs (Firefox, Firebird, Netscape, etc.), but I won't put it in "PHP", and less in "Chess"
You can do this either in your profile if you want to change it locally, or in general profile if you have the administrator privilledges (I've got the power! )
First of all, close your browser!
1) In your local folder, supposing your profile is called "user":
Go to ~/.mozilla (or .phoenix if Firefox); cd user/somedir.slt
edit prefs.js adding the following line:

user_pref("general.useragent.override","New Browser Name");

Euh, wait, I think this method is possible with Windows
It should be something like C:\Documents and Settings\SomeUser\Application Data\mozilla (or phoenix)userdirctoty.slt and edit prefs.js as the described above.

2) In your mozilla installation:

cd /usr/local/mozilla/defaults/pref

or

cd /usr/lib/mozilla1.x
if RPM installation.
edit any file .js adding the following line:

pref("general.useragent.override","New Browser Name");

The same with Windows: C:\Where Mozilla\is\installed\defaults\pref
edit any file .js adding the following line:

pref("general.useragent.override","New Browser Name");


When I see in my log files you have hacked your browsers identity, I won't get angry, but will just say:
