[CoLoCo] make sites think i'm using windows

[David Overcash]

Try either of the following extensions:
http://chrispederick.com/work/user-agent-switcher/
http://prefbar.mozdev.org/

The second is a bit more robust than what you're looking for...  but you
should be able to trick any server into thinking your an IE user on windows
XP or something similar.
