User agent spoofing
February 08, 2009
r8764 — Add support for UA spoofing, and spoof Safari's UA string when loading URLs from *.mail.live.com (to fix hotmail).
From the diff:
+ if (MatchPattern(url.host(), "*.mail.live.com")) {
Sadness.
Amusingly, on the other side (to plugins) we also sometimes UA spoof, telling them that we're Mozilla. (If it seems I talk about plugins a lot recently it's because I've been working on plugins on Linux.)
