note 39605 added to function.fopen

The issue involving some sites requiring a valid user-agent string when using fopen can easily be resolved by setting the user_agent string in the PHP.INI file. If you do not have access to the PHP.INI file, then the use of ini_set('user_agent','Mozilla: (compatible; Windows XP)'); should also work. The actual agent string is up to you. If you want to identify to the sites that you are using PHP ... ini_set('user_agent','PHP'); would do.
