User Agent Category: Provider/Adware

ISPs (Internet Service Providers) or cellphone/mobile device service providers can include a specific signature in a traditional browser User Agent string. In some cases, this is done only for advertising purposes, to let other website owners know about their services. On client's browser, they may also change the title bar information, with a similar intent. Same category includes the type of client's computer, such as Compag or Amiga, when a specific distributor is mentionned.
