This was used for this IP Blocklist download. - Currently it gave me the string IPFire/2.29/192. - This was tested out with the Threatview.io IP blocklist download and it worked fine. - If this patch is approved and merged then I will let contact Threatview.io to let them know what our User Agent string is.
