There is actually an operational difference. In the about:config page

on to a website. It would only let me in when I set it to
"Firefox/2.0.0".


Might want to let the webmaster know about W3C standards and explain why
following them strictly is a better idea than anal-retentive User-Agent
string checking, while you're at it. Bonus points if you know the direct
email address to that webmaster's boss.


If it's really looking for "Firefox" then the only thing I can imagine
is an anti-IE website done so on purpose.
