That's better than a huge alias!
For the record, some sites (all the ones I've had problems with, at least) seem only to check for the presence of "Mozilla"; setting the user-agent string to simply "Mozilla" fools them. But, especially in the case of setting it in the .wgetrc file, it is much more convenient to set it to a full string like that. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
