User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041201 Camino/0.8.2 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041201 Camino/0.8.2 When I try to listen to SIRIUS on line, I get the following message: "Sorry, Netscape 5.0 is not supported by the SIRIUS Player. Please upgrade to the latest version to listen to all of our 100% commercial-free music uninterrupted." Works fine with Safari. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Go to http://www.sirius.com/servlet/ContentServer?pagename=Sirius/CachedPage&c=Channel&cid=1104779639979 2.Click on listen 3. Actual Results: Error message "Sorry, Netscape 5.0 is not supported by the SIRIUS Player. Please upgrade to the latest version to listen to all of our 100% commercial-free music uninterrupted." Expected Results: music
This is because their user agent-detection is flawed. I spoofed Camino's User-Agent header (by setting it to a Netscape 6 version in user.js) and it worked fine. They should probably be mailed.

Reading the dupes, this doesn't look like a Firefox-in-UA issue - lots of Mozilla browsers don't work. Removing dependency. Gerv

(In reply to comment #8) > lots of Mozilla browsers don't work. Removing dependency. That's because they're sniffing for Firefox. Bug 374077 specifically says this works fine in Firefox, so it's not one of the Mozilla browsers that doesn't work. Re-adding dependency.
