to set up the plugin, click on add, the name your 'agent" something like

google

in the description text box. For the “User Agent” field, put this:

Googlebot/2.1 ([http://www.googlebot.com/bot.html](http://www.googlebot.com/bot.html))

save it, then to acces the plugin, go to tools (next to help on the menu bar in firefox) mouse over Agent Switcher, and select google, surf away. A word of warning, some sites will ban you if they do an IP range check, or a reverse DNS check and your IP doesnt match that of their stored googlebot IP addy or DNS. I used this to browse a few forums that had access set ot members only but did not restrict google from seeing the “goods”. Very nice toy to play with.
