Cable Forum - View Single Post - Making Firefox claim to be a different browser

I know some browsers will let you change an option so that they claim to be something else ... Firefox won't do this though. Does anyone know how to modify the config file temporarily so I can disguise myself as a Firefox for Mac user?

I need to update my .Mac homepage but the modem is broken on my Mac at home. The service insists that you connect from a Mac so I'm hoping to fool it from my work PC.
