3.10.00

The uachanger adds a menu to &konqueror; that allows you to change the Browser and Operating System identification on a domain-by-domain basis. This is useful when browsing websites that limit access to those using a particular web browser.

## The User Agent Changer

### Using the User Agent Changer

The &konqueror; uachanger plugin can be accessed in the menubar under Tools Change Browser Identification

Default Identification

- The default User Agent header for &konqueror; is Mozilla/5.0(compatible;Konqueror/3.2)(KHTML, like Gecko). If you come across a site that refuses this browser access, change your User Agent to one of the options below.

Internet Explorer

- Allows you to change your User Agent header to MSIE for sites that refuse Mozilla-based browsers entry. You will most likely need to use one of the MSIE User Agents if you wish to use &konqueror; to access Hotmail.

Mozilla

- Allows you to change the User Agent header in &konqueror; to appear as Mozilla version 1.2.1 through 1.6

Netscape Navigator

- Pages that don't comply with W3C recommendations, or were written using proprietary &HTML; elements and attributes will render correctly if you choose to send the User Agent of these old browsers.

Other

- This section contains miscellaneous browsers that you can use to change your User Agent.

Apply To Entire Site

- This option allows you to specify that the defined User Agent applies across every page on the site you are visiting.

Configure

- Selecting Configure allows you to fine tune the amount of information you wish to reveal about the browser and operating system being used.
