Ah, yes, some sites check that field and act differently depending on what
browser it thinks you are!

Wipe up your own web server and point IE to it, check what the request looks
like (there's a web server included in the curl source archive, for the
test suite, it compiles and builds on most unix systems but making it build
on windows shouldn't be that tricky).

I believe 'netcat' can do it for you too:

Another approach is to just get a network analyzer (like ethereal) and check
the network traffic to see what the browser sends away when issuing requests
to servers.
