Not a GUI browser, but Jakarta Commons HttpClient allows you to specify the user-agent.

It would be OK if it accepted cookies automatically for each site.

A:
This Stack Overflow question lists of browser components for Swing that you could use instead: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/145863/best-java-swing-browser-component
A number of them are open source and written in Java, so you could pick one of those and change the user agent header in the source code of your chosen component.
