Firefox 9.0 (Windows) mystery solved

(1/1)

Why does Obi110 identify itself to Google as Firefox 9.0 (Windows)?

I have been worried about who was logging into my Google account from Firefox 9.0 on Windows, and it turns out to be my Obi110.  I thought I had been hacked since I use neither Firefox nor Windows.

Be careful, I wouldn't sign into this link. For a post to be concerned about being hacked, curious that it links to a page requesting a user name and password!

nlurker:
It is the Google page that shows you all logins to your Google account.  It is where you can see Obihai logging in as Firefox 9.0 (Windows).

QBZappy:
I stand corrected.

Does no one have any thoughts on why Obi spoofs as Windows?
