Reproduce

These four user agents are identified as bots. I don't know how to reproduce this. I can confirm that these were the real users browsing a website based on their IP geolocation and activities they did on the websites.

Thank you. I will review these user agent strings and suggest the appropriate changes to the pattern

Thank you. I've been able to recognise all but the first one, which seems like a glitch.

The entire string, Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; Win64; x64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/127.0.0.0 Safari/537.36 ||| ReqID: 472 | TabID: 643408467 | FrameID: 0 | ParentFrameID: -1 | Type: xmlhttprequest | Time: 1722598417470 | Initiator: https://bummer.in/ includes additional data after the user agent string

Addressed in PR #271
