It won't let me use Firefox 8. It says I need a more modern Firefox. Hmm...


Firefox 8 isn't official so it probably sends a funky header back that identifies it as something else. Or their detection code is wrong.


According to WhatsMyUserAgent.com, Firefox 9.0a2 (alpha channel) looks like this:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 6.1; WOW64; rv:9.0a2) Gecko/20110930 Firefox/9.0a2

Doesn't look very weird.


I will check this, this is just for testing anyways.
