"..set it to something that uniquely identifying your application, 
rather than using one from a web browser"

Thanks for the comment. I take your point and I've now created a unique 
user-agent, identifying the OS and application description, which works.

Since the standard Python agent is blacklisted,  there does not seem to 
be much documentation on how small non-browser applications (using very 
simple HTML techniques) should format their user-agents.
