[Bug 397211] Re: Shiretoko user agent string breaks compatibilty with major websites

[Blayde]

http://www.dailymotion.com/openvideodemo has already been brought up in
the other bug report. Since open video is one of the big things that's
new in Firefox 3.5 it is very confusing to someone who just installed it
to be told they need to upgrade. So confusing, in fact, that there *is*
a bug report just for this site.

http://www.facebook.com/ is the site I had problems with. Load up
home.php when you are signed in and instead of having integrated chat,
there is a 'open facebook chat' that also informs you of using an older
browser and suggests you update to Firefox.

Both of these work properly when the user-agent is set to "Firefox/3.5"

I tried testing mail.live.com but it's having problems signing me in...
Anyways, I'm sure this is enough to justify this simple change
