Was it called Firefox back then? I thought 0.* versions were mostly Firebird? Either way it's funny, and pathetic, to be presenting a version that old. Is that a Comcast Business IP address?

I'll never understand why some spoofers select a user agent that stands out like the one above does. If I were doing this I'd go with Firefox 3.0.?. I see so many of those that unless someone was doing something really bad I'd never notice it. Or the one someone posted this morning using Charlotte 0.5 when two years ago we were discussing Charlotte 1.something.
