user-agent string for IE: msg#00124

Subject: user-agent string for IE
Hi all.

Sorry for my asking but I am new user of wget. At first I have to say that 
this utility is realy great.
I am asking you for help. I was carefuly listening the debat about 
robots.txt, but it is not solving my problem.
I am using wget (the latest version) under Red Hat 6.2 in the mirroring mode. 
Some pages are unfortunately written strictly for MS Internet Explorer - due 
to JavaScripts or iframe. When I want to mirror this page I have to to set 
user-string as looking asi MS IE :-( 
I was trying:
--user-agent=Mozilla/4.0
--user-agent=MSIE/6.0
But it does not work :-(
I have read in wget manual that this could be seen as a violation of 
browser-developer's law. But I am using it for my own purpose, so it could 
get through.

Thanks for all answers and suggestions.
Jakub
