Looks like extension removed.

ふ~ちゃんwhochan Wednesday, December 15, 2010 1:13:38 PM

This extension is still examined. And it is not published yet.

metude Wednesday, December 15, 2010 3:31:25 PM

Could you share extension with link (uploading to my opera)

ふ~ちゃんwhochan Wednesday, December 15, 2010 8:54:03 PM

It's published now! You can install it. Thanks.

I cant look inside the book with opera browser

ふ~ちゃんwhochan Tuesday, December 21, 2010 7:07:07 AM

>deathscription
Does it mean that amazon.com has issues both with this extension and without?
Maybe amazon.com has been sniffing browsers at server side.
This extension is effective only at client side.

Can you please fix mouse wheel scrolling issue on Google Docs spreadsheets?

Hi, I like this extension and find it to be very useful. BUT, hence last update I am am having problems with chat bar on gmail. It doesn't load until I disable this extension. Once it loads, I can turn extension beck on and every thing is working fine ...

Installed your V1-2b on WinXP. It is the only extension installed. It works great on sites that previously blocked Opera. However, am having the following glitch. Do most of my browsing with javascript disabled. Enable javascript only when site requires it. Since installling your extension if i close Opera with javascript disabled Opera gives me error message that that an error has occurred(this is after i have closed Opera)and Opera must restart, with options to send report, do not send report and do not restart. However if i exit Opera with javascript enabled no problems occurr. Can you fix this? TIA

HomiSite Thursday, January 6, 2011 10:33:50 AM

I like your extension because it fixes some problems which occur even if Opera is masked as FF brower manually. But it seems that the extension is active on almost any site I visit - even on my.opera.com?!
I want to be known as an Opera user, so can you add some option that the extension is inactive on default? Maybe even with an indicator if the actual visited site is known as problematic?

PS: I suggest also more clear icons.

with Antibrowsniffer r.1.2-B Opera is permanently crashing in Gmail - especially when you try to use functions like "create label" etc.

This extension is only to work for the time being. Please request to the website if it is advanced problem.

>Karadzic Marko
It is not happened in my environment. Is your AntiBrowsniffer's button blue?

>Douglas
It is not happened in my environment. Maybe it's Opera's issue... Sorry.

>HomiSite
This masks only on JavaScript. UA masked by this extension is not submitted at the time of the access(HTTP request).Do not worry because the proper access analyzer does not use JavaScript.

TomQyngali Sunday, January 9, 2011 5:18:59 AM

You need to explain in more detail what the extension actually does, which sites (or domains), which changes? What does it do that browser.js doesn't? Sorry but I don't really understand the current description...

Saying that the extension can be a "poison" indicates to me that it doesn't just apply fixes to a specific list of sites but also makes some general changes, and that sounds like a really bad idea. Correct me if I'm wrong. smile

ふ~ちゃんwhochan Sunday, January 9, 2011 6:10:42 AM

This extension checks site's JavaScript and seek codes that be sniffing browsers. If they are there, it disables such codes automatically. However, "Browser sniffing" are effective a little sometimes, then AntiBrowsnifer become poison.

This extension changes only 3 things.
#1. If found "navigator" and some borowser's name in codes, this masks Opera's UA as Firefox.
#2. If site's script try to use IE's method, this disables them("document.all" or "attachEvent").
#3. If site discriminates Opera by "window.opera", this avoids it.

It is read. Switching it to blue slows the problem ...

HomiSite Tuesday, January 11, 2011 12:13:33 PM

>ふ~ちゃん
Thanks for the info. You should add the details you gave to Tom and me to the description text on AntiBrowsniffer's main site.

Nikolaus Britegamchoclate2 Friday, January 14, 2011 1:44:57 AM

It does not seem to work with Netflix I am not sure if is meant to excuse my naiveté if it is not meant for those sorts of websites. I still get the streaming is not supported on this website notice.

Douglasdouglas9 Tuesday, January 25, 2011 2:07:40 PM

Not sure what happend, but your extension no longer works at the link below. Before using 1.2b it enabled me to use the site but it failed today. Upgraded to your 1.3 update and the site still gives me the unsupported message. Any help appreciated...thanks.....

HomiSite Tuesday, January 25, 2011 4:58:55 PM

With activated AntiBrowsniffer 1.3.0, you can't enter anything in the text fields/lines on http://www.saalesparkasse.de (https://banking.saalesparkasse.de/cgi/anfang.cgi). No problems with the blue pill.

HomiSite Wednesday, January 26, 2011 7:59:25 PM

It seems you can't deactivate 1.3.2 with click on the icon, at least the symbol doesn't change into blue pill. The saalesparkasse-bug mentioned above is still there, but maybe hard to fix for you: The not working text fields only appear when you are logged in (onlinebanking).

Дмитрий Ивановe1off Thursday, January 27, 2011 4:13:19 PM

It would be really nice if there was an option to change the action by default. I mean that now on the page which checks the browser the extension automatically disables the check, unless you manually tell it not to do so. Obviously, on most sites it is unnecessary, so it would be more practical, if you would manually turn check disabling on, not off.

Leslie D. MartinAlaskaHome1959 Thursday, January 27, 2011 9:03:33 PM

Doesn't help with Shutterfly share pages, such as < AlaskaHome1986.shutterfly.com/ >.

Sasquatch Friday, January 28, 2011 2:04:18 PM

This addon would be perfect if you can set site specific settings on which it should be enabled. I use it to fix Google Spreadsheets and have it disabled on all other sites. So if you can make this an option to not do anything unless specified for certain sites, it will be my number 1 addon to install on a new Opera install before setting up the rest of the browser.

Like what Дмитрий Иванов above is asking.

I'd like to keep my UA to show Opera and not Firefox as much as possible, even if window.opera is detected on a few sites, that don't really need fixing.

HomiSite Friday, January 28, 2011 4:31:40 PM

@Sasquatch: According to UA, ふ~ちゃん said above:

"This masks only on JavaScript. UA masked by this extension is not submitted at the time of the access(HTTP request).Do not worry because the proper access analyzer does not use JavaScript."

Çağlar Yeşilyurtgreench Saturday, January 29, 2011 5:20:44 PM

Can you add this web site, http://www.ntvmsnbc.com/, whose menus are not working to the list.

Islys Sunday, January 30, 2011 1:24:48 AM

Thanks for a great extension, ふ~ちゃん! It would be nice if I could set it to "disabled" or "enabled" by default without disabling the entire extension. Just set via extension preferences, so I can easily enable it when needed, rather than disable it when it's not needed.

Sasquatch Monday, January 31, 2011 8:55:27 AM

@HomiSite:
Ah, thanks, must've missed that comment or misunderstood it.
It would still be great if you can enable it on a per-site basis instead of having it enabled all the time and you have to disable it manually each time you open the site/domain.

My problem here http://apps.facebook.com/flixster/
Look this video http://clip2net.com/s/L0Tu
And how it works in IE8 http://clip2net.com/clip/m70386/1296935396-clip-62kb.jpg

There is Opera problems or plugins?

GamesiarzMufas Monday, February 7, 2011 1:46:54 AM

I really like your extension but is there any possibility to completely hide this icon. I don't care if its blue or red the important thing is that it works.

Cheers

PengePenge4 Monday, February 21, 2011 6:01:59 PM

Please add an option to disable on all sites except on the problematic sites.

What should I modify in background.js or usoFuckDisOpera.js for the "disabledbydefault" working mode?

After that I write the problematic sites in the sitelist.js with "on" switch.

HomiSite Wednesday, February 23, 2011 3:50:43 PM

I just want to recall the www.saalesparkasse.de-Bug where you can't enter any text after logging into your bank account - even with the blue pill. You have to deactivate AntiBrowsniffer before logging in.

Hallvord R. M. Steenhallvors Friday, March 4, 2011 3:01:38 PM

My only problem with this extension is that I keep searching for it without finding it :-p I'll try to remember to search for "antibrowsniffer" next time, having tried searching the extensions catalog for all these keywords:

mask
spoof
identify
hide
user-agent
userAgent
firefox

Perhaps you could rewrite the description slightly to include more of those words? (Or is the problem that search only includes titles?? I have no idea how the catalogue works, really..)

Leslie D. MartinAlaskaHome1959 Saturday, March 5, 2011 3:32:49 PM

Hallvord R. M. Steen: There are definitely problems with the search function in O-extensions. Do a search for "maps mini google" and you won't get anything. Search for "google mini maps" and you won't get anything. Search for "mini google maps" and you will get..."Mini Google Maps". Since the extension name is three distinct words, reasonably one expects a search engine to find the extension so long as you search for the words involved, regardless of the order given. But the O-Extension search function will simply not find an extension if the word sequence in the search does not match the word sequence in the extension title or description. This is not very impressive, to say the least.

Douglasdouglas9 Saturday, March 5, 2011 5:47:43 PM

I find it by using "anti"

svyr Saturday, March 19, 2011 7:21:22 AM

the latest version starts leaking memory massively for me until opera crashes (runs out of ram) sad . when I disable the antibrowsniffer it works fine.

Branimir BigaBigOni Sunday, March 20, 2011 2:07:22 AM

I accidentally changed the user agent to Internet Explorer in my gmail account, and now I can not load my gmail account in the standard view, only in basic. and there is no way to change user agent back, 'cause extension's button is disabled. Help, please. i'm using latest versions of extension and opera

ふ~ちゃんwhochan Sunday, March 20, 2011 7:26:06 AM

>Branimir Biga
Thank you. Maybe it will be fixed in next version.

svyr Sunday, March 20, 2011 7:44:45 AM

whochan - thank you! Maybe it was as much to do with the extension update as it was with the opera version update (I'm on the latest beta).

Hopefully either way it'll be resolved, because your extension really is useful!

Raphael Ramalhoraphahxb Sunday, March 20, 2011 10:43:12 PM

the last update did this addon very nice

but opera mode should be first

all new pages I open, it comes FF mode by default. could you change it? by the way it's opera, not Firefox

and where's the "turn off" button?

this extension has a bug with wwww.orkut.com.br page
everytime I load this page, it show a popup like this

"Javascript <www.orkut.com.br>

ERROR: Possible problem with your *.gwt.xml module file.
The compile time user.agent value (opera) does not match the runtime user.agent value (ie6). Expect more errors."



so, please, add a button to turn off the extension on the pages a want

dEricT MalEDerict Friday, March 25, 2011 1:21:21 PM

I'm just asking, it's not user agent changer?..
So what the different, when it change to firefox/IE cuz on browser detector still same, checked that I use opera 9.80..
I really thank's if you can develop or porting add-ons from FF, called "User Agent Switcher" - it really change mode to another browser, and passed browser detector, And it can camouflage as iPhone too, it was great..

svyr Friday, March 25, 2011 3:01:09 PM

good to see the problem I mentioned with opera eating all of ram unless ABS was disabled is gone. Thank you !

Radosław MichalikExathil Saturday, April 16, 2011 10:25:54 AM

Make Opera as default mode please, the FF makes my PC slower. Thanks:)

Extension block certain functions on the page, in particular the opportunity to vote for or against the question or the answer

But in the mode of "Opera Mode" all is well.

On YouTube, where FF mode is default, the Insight page won't load. With Opera mode no problem.

HomiSite Monday, October 3, 2011 6:13:31 PM

Seems that 2.1 has some bugs:
- You can't change the mode via the button menu - it is locked to the one set in the preferences. UPDATE: Mh, it seems to work after all, at least right now.
- The links for "Support" and "Report issues" in the button menu lead to non-existing pages or are broken
- Typo in the icon menu: "Intetnet Explorer mode" (instead of "Internet ...")
