Okay, here's something for you guys ...
Sometimes, when you visit a certain site, it may tell you that you cannot view it using Mozilla. Well, that's BS. You can edit the user.js file to make websites think that you are using IE, when you're actually using Mozilla
Here's how:
1) Close down Mozilla completely (including QuickLaunch if you have it enabled)
2) Search your HDD for "prefs.js"
3) In the same folder as "prefs.js", create a new file called "user.js" and add this line.
If the file already exists, open it with Notepad and add this to the last line.
4) Restart Mozilla, and you're done! If all is well, you should see "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible;MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)" when you click Help>About Mozilla
Have fun
