   I spoof Firefox too, but it doesn't help. I always "get a challenge   
   saying "Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer   
   network. This page checks to see if it's really you sending the   
   requests, and not a robot. Why did this happen?" and demanding I pass a   
   reCAPTCHA, but when I check the box, it just presents an endless spinner.   
      
   Could you post a valid UA string that works?   
      
   In more general terms, SM hasn't worked with reCAPTCHA and CloudFlare   
   for the last few months, so for sites that use them I have to switch to   
   another browser.
