[Bug 279112] Re: Linux Firefox 3.03 wont work with hotmail

[Tetsuo__Shima]

Hello!

I had this problem with hotmail and after searching some forums I was able to fix it.
+++++   Hotmail recognizes Firefox now.  +++++++

You have to do the following in Firefox.

In the adress bar type:  About:config

Accept the terms.

Then search for:  USERAGENT 
In the list that appears search for:

general.useragent.vendor predetermined Chain Ubuntu

Change the word:  Ubuntu  for: Firefox
It should read:

general.useragent.vendor predetermined Chain Firefox

and to save you close the tab then in file you select QUIT
This way the change is saved in Firefox 3.0.3

And works well under Ubuntu Intrepid 8.10

To verify that the change worked I rebooted the computer several times
and no problem what so ever, hopefully it will work for anyone with this
little problem.

In any case thank you for your time!!
Hope that you have a great weekend!!!

Tetsuo
