Try to change the userString, and choose Firefox

Tools -> Useragent > Firefox

or use an extension to automatically set userString to a certain value depending the site you are trying to connect 5I don't remember the name), but go to Extensions forum, i ought to find it.

Click Help: About K-Meleon.

What K-Meleon is showing/sending as UserAgentString to a web page is indicated below the moving credits field.

Is when I set it to Firefox: Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de; rv:1.8.1.20) Gecko/20081217 Firefox/2.0.0.20 since I use a German K-Meleon version.

For pages that do not like Firefox 2 You can set a custom string.

For some pages it is better to use K-Meleon1.6.beta, which must be installed into a folder with a custom name and the can use the same profile as 1.5.4.

But do a backup before You do such things. smiling smiley

K-Meleon1.6 can successfully imitate Firefox 3 on pages that have JavaScript code that is optimized for Firefox 3. K-Meleon 1.5.4 does not always understand JavaScript optimized for Firefox 3.
