Hi,

Thanks, both of those modules look promising, especially the second one, where we can set the user agent, because we need to test quite a number of agent names to make sure the session id's get turned off for them.

    I expect any such module to be based on the LWP library and thus you should be able to set the user agent in any of those libraries with equal ease. But I haven't worked with WWW::Robot, so I don't know if it actually uses LWP (it should).

      CPAN tells me that WWW::Robot has a dependancy of LWP::RobotUA
