I defined a separate profile, named "chase", where I went to about:config, defined general.useragent.override (not sure if I remembered that perfectly) to be the regular user agent string but with "SeaMonkey" removed. Then the web server recognized the browser as Firefox. I don't see what's so bad about including "SeaMonkey", but that's how the web server software works: buggy, or maybe the bug is in the head of that software developer and/or webmasters who continue to use that web server software even after being informed about the bug.
