EQ2Map updater: user agent and proxy
Hi,
I've been using eq2map for a loong time but just tried auto-updater yesterday. Seems like manual version is way outdated?
Anyways, I've had significant problems with the updater (not because of updater, but because of my configuration). I'm not sure updater is even being developed now, but in case it is, a couple of things that could help a lot are:
- Option to connect directly instead of using IE proxy settings.
- Add user-agent header to the HTTP request.
The reason I would like to have those things is because I'm using content-altering proxy for my browsing needs (Proxomitron if anyone cares). This content altering interferes with updater severely. I could've established "bypass" mode for the updater, but updater also doesn't supply any user-agent identification that I could use as a basis for differentiating between updater and other software that goes through that proxy.
