I'd like to change the identification of some of my browsers so that they pretend they run on MS-Windows. Has anybody tried it?
The reason (which made me very angry) is the following reply from a bank:
The "Solo" web pages have been changed and I'm no longer able to fill in the "Registrera ny betalning" form. I've tried Netscape 4.78, Mozilla 0.9.4, Opera 6.0, Konqueror 2.2.2, ... browsers but none of them works. Can't it be fixed somehow?
We don´t support Linux and that is why you can´t register your payments. If you have any further questions about this, please call our internetsupport at 020-421516.
I would switch banks. Any bank so dependent on Microsoft is in baaaad shape. You could write a perl script with the lwp:simple module that will mimic any browser, or maybe you could get the mozilla source and compile it it with your custom string. -- $|=1;while(1){print pack("h*",'75861647f302d4560275f6272797f3');sleep(1); for(1..16){for(8,32,8,7){print chr($_);}select(undef,undef,undef,.05);}}
