HI,
I'm running Lenny with Iceweasel 3.0.6. I understand that I can't
upgrade the browser without upgrading to sid, which I'm not willing
to do at this time.
Problem that I am having is that when I access yahoo mail, it tells me
that in order to use the new version of yahoo mail, I have to use
firefox (there are some other choices, but I don't want to install
another browser).
How can I have sites identify iceweasel 3.0.6 as firefox so that I can
access the features of sites that are blocked from me?
Install an addon like User Agent Switcher or something like that so you
can change your user agent string to say firefox. Or go to
mozilla.debian.net for more updated iceweasel packages. You could also
run the FF binary from Mozilla right out of your home directory without
affecting your system install.
Lenny is old stable so you'll stop getting security updates in less than
a year. You may want to plan an upgrade to squeeze in the near future.
