Could someone falsify the information that his browser send to the server?

I think there was a windows browser that looked like a GP32 recently, maybe that's it's user agent string. I told this to vimacs, but obviously he didn't want to believe me...

EDIT: found the thread: http://www.gp32x.de/board/index.php?showtopic=12803&hl=

 

[jlebrech]

could modify apache source code to display any data you want to a browser

testet it, it is "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; BrowserBob; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)"

That user agent has been cropping up all over the place in the last couple of weeks. I think empee was one of the first to spot it, and it appeared in my logs on the 28th Aug.

 

[jlebrech]

Oh a browser, i was thinking server

 

[Zap]

well, someone had a web server running on gplinux, why not a browser ?

It *could* be a modified lynx or something like that

 

[jcbnetwork]

most likely a modified user agent string which is very easy to do.

HTTP4GP32/0.1a (GP32; ARM9; U) [en]

Ingeras already has released links for gp32linux...

He will release another pack very soon.
It could be funny to fake the user agent in this version in order to get some stats...

You can just fake the user-agent using something like the Firesomething plugin for Firefox.
