Useragentstring Hack for FireFox - Serial Thrilla - 07-04-2010

Hello Community,

this is a small but useful FireFox Hack for about:config.

1. Open about:config.
2. Make a new String.
3. Call it general.useragent.override .
4. Go to http://useragentstring.com/pages/useragentstring.php and choose your prefered useragentstring.
5. Enter the string you prefer into the value of general.useragent.override .
6. Go to useragentstring.com and check your string.

Its pertty simple.

This could be fairly stupid as the original will not be stored anywhere.
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/59/ is more usefull.

Yes you right but you can visit useragentstring.com again and grab the agent of your browser version or you simply delete the key.

Visiting useragentstring.com will give you a false version after you changed the key, and the extension looks much simpler too me anyway. :)
