When I were debugging with ethereal, I discovered that sometimes all 
HTTP headers appeared on the first line of the GET request together with 
the path. When they appeared on separate lines, there was an extra line 
reading " HTTP/1.0" last. I didn't dig deeper into what was the cause. 
But since QUrlOperator weren't design to allow custom headers, I think 
the best solution was to use QHttp instead. 
It wasn't necessary to change the User-Agent after I changed to QHttp.
