Specify a custom user agent string

Use a custom user agent. I have problems with some servers that do not allow old internet explore 5 user agent string. FDM is blocked, so I had to create my own download manager. I love to use FDM, but as soon as i implement bittorrent myself i can switch to my custom download manager.

Actually you can do it, Paulo! Look:

Although the screenshot's in Spanish, you can easily understand where this option is. In fact, **you can type anything into that highlighted box**, like, for instance:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Ubuntu; Linux i686; rv:28.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/28.0
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20140618 Firefox/24.0 PaleMoon/24.6.2

Just remember to apply and accept this modification before closing this window.

Regards.
