Firefox and what it tells websites about itself

    Is there a setting in Firefox that would change what it says to a website about its self ?

    For example, If I used a Opera it would give the I.D. "Opera 9.1" and if I used IE 7 it would say "Internet Explorer 7".
    I don't even know what this "I.D" is called.

    Is there a way I can change what Firefox says?
    I am using the latest release (Firefox 3.0 rc1)

    Thanks, but as I said I am using the latest release which is not supported by the add-on. I figure that if an add-on can modify the profile there must be a setting in the about:config menu which I can change no matter what version I am using.

    But thanks any way, I will downgrade for the special purpose of using the add-on.

    Any other suggestion?
