interpret user-agent

This came up as user agent. Is it a joke or can you run all that at once? (He skipped MSIE though )

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US) AppleWebKit/533.4 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/5.0.375.99 Safari/533.4

using php script people change the name of browser

I guess you are right. I don't think it can be real? Aren't there some browsers too where you can set this variable?

 

There is an addon for Firefox called User Agent Switcher, where you can pretty much set your user agent to anything. (i.e Googlebot). There is other similar software which allows you to do this also.

 

I have just changed my logging system and I haven't become really used to it yet, sorry for that. I got more logs of this kind from other IP:s and I therefore tried around a little. It seems the log comes from Google Chrome. It uses Webkit but I can't see why it puts Safari, Apple and Gecko into the string! (MSIE puts Mozilla in the string too!)

 

If I run Safari under Windows I get almost exactly the same string as with Chrome, only that it does not say Chrome:

Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; en-US) AppleWebKit/531.22.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/4.0.5 Safari/531.22.7
