Change user agent string

Hi

I want to change a USER AGENT string in Internet Explorer whilst it is running (or after launching). So I can't change through a registry key. Is there any other way to do this?

+2  A: 

The Fiddler tool is your friend here: http://www.fiddler2.com/fiddler2/

More details: http://www.fiddlertool.com/ua.aspx.

And if you are using IE8 there is an add-in to just change the UA string: http://www.enhanceie.com/ietoys/uapick.asp

Are you embedding IE in an application? You can't directly change the IE user agent but you should be able to add a "User-Agent" header to the http call that will overwrite the IE UA string.

If you can use Firefox, there is a User-Agent switcher add-on
