K-Meleon sends his User Agent String on contact to facebook (any internet server/page) in the http header. Facebook directs K-Meleon to the appropriate page. Now some pages look for strings such as Firefox or IE while they should detect the html engine & its version. So You camouflage as a browser that You assume to be known, and that uses the same html rendering engine as Your browser. There is only a [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_web_browser_engines]hand full of html rendering engines[/url] but many browser shells.

You can either set Tools -> User Agent to Firefox.

Or You can insert a custom string via copy/paste into menu field for that:

Tools -> User Agent -> Custom (pop-up), insert custom string and click ok.

Facebook should work with K-Meleon 1.6beta2. You can further change the Agent String to Firefox 3.5. Or You can use K-Meleon 1.5.4 and add the mentioned user custom styles by disrupted to Edit -> Configuration -> User-Defined Style Sheet.[/quote]
