nessus-fetch user-agent issue

Subject: nessus-fetch user-agent issue
Date: Thu, 27 Jul 2006 13:59:33 -0700
Hello,

I am running into an issue with a proxy server which will not allow
certain older, insecure, browsers through it.  Older versions of nessus
have not been an issue, but a change went in in 1.4 that added
"User-Agent: Mozilla/4.73" for HTTPS requests.  HTTP requests show up
as  Nessus-Fetch/3.0.2, which is not on our block list.  

1)  Is there an easy way to change the User-Agent banner for CONNECT
requests?  

2)  Is Nessus really using really old version of Mozilla to make the
HTTPS connection?


Thanks!
Robin
