opening page in webbrowser

I am using TWebBrowser to open a site.

When it opens, it comes with the message that the webbrowser (ie 9) is out of date and that I should replace it. This is the only time I get it.

How can I avoid it (it makes opening the page realy slow)?

in fact the TWebBrowser is showing the page in IE7 mode by default. You need to add registry keys for your application to force a higher IE mode.

Websites use User-agent to determine what browser you are using.

Take a look at the following article which will show you how to spoof the user-agent making the website believe you have a different browser. You can use that to mask yourself as the latest firefox/chrome/whatever browser.
