# Snoopy should be amended so that agent reads:
#  User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-GB; rv:1.8.1.6) Gecko/20070725 Firefox/2.0.0.6
# and the host name is en.wikipedia.org.

It does not. Bots falsifying a User-Agent header may be blocked from access to the squid proxies (so I was told by a developer). Your automated requests are not coming from Firefox and should not be marked as such. — madman bum and angel 05:58, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Oh. So what should I set it as? It didn't seem to like it when I tried the default setting of Snoopy v1.2.3...

Thanks for pointing this out, though. Verisimilus T 07:30, 27 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I set mine as [[wikipedia:en:User:MadmanBot]] – that's pretty clear. — madman bum and angel 02:13, 28 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Working fine now. Wonder why it didn't before.... Thanks for the pointer! Verisimilus T —Preceding unsigned comment added by Verisimilus (talk • contribs) 14:26, 2 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
