It takes more than the agent signature to impersonate a browser. I have
come across a few webpages which use Javascript to prevent people from
using other agents to download a webpage.

based on what's sent back - username/password obviously, but it looks it's

passing that info back?

I suggest making a dump of the session using a sniffer. That should show
you what you need to do to mimic IE.
