Tried to reset the UA string via this utility. Then tried to enter FF options to clear cookies and cache as is recommended. Browser locked. Had to kill it with the Program Manager. Repeat sequence - results in locked browser. Had to remove the utility then reboot to get rid of this problem. As another user noted, there is no general.useragent.override in my config:about settings. 0 stars for software that is not updated but still has a request for payment.

The separately loaded strings for additional browser options are (1) hard to find, it's not obvious this is needed and (2) is NOT up to date - it stops at FF 25. That doesn't help when trying to force Hotmail to accept that my FF is actually up to date because the latest version is 31. I don't know how out of date the rest of the entries are, but I'm sure none of the other browser choices are any better.

BTW, going into about:config and creating the entry general.useragent.override and setting it to Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 5.1; rv:31.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/31.0 works perfectly to get me into hotmail without getting those stupid overlook errors (MS doesn't recognize ESR release as valid release and assumes hotmail won't work with it - even though it does). So - this is a case where doing it by hand saves a lot of time and effort when compared to trying to use an out-of-date utility. (creating a specific list entry in this utility to make up for the fact that the .xml file with browser UA strings is also out of date did not result in success, as there is something wrong in this utility that bolluxes the entire browser)
