Google Calendar "browser that isn't currently supported" msg

Apologies if this is a total newb question that has an obvious answer that I'm missing.

When I have Abine running, I get the following pop-up with Google Calendar: "Sorry, you are trying to use Google Calendar with a browser that isn't currently supported. Press OK to view a read only version of your calendar. Press Cancel to continue loading Google Calendar and hope for the best!".

Pressing Cancel works fine, but it's on the irritating side to have to clear that pop-up every time now. I suspect it's because Abine is trying to protect me by hiding my browser version, but being a newb, I can't figure out how to tell Abine how to let Google Calendar know my browser version but still hide it for others.

Re: Google Calendar "browser that isn't currently supported"

This is probably happening if you're using an advanced feature to mask your user-agent string.

This option is in there as there are some sites that *may* be using browser fingerprinting and we're working to make that as hard as possible. However, some sites rely on it in order to figure out what to display to you etc. (Like gCal apparently). Since it's easy for this to mess up website we're keeping this feature hidden for now.

To fix: Upgrade to the latest version and it will work. Be sure you're allowing cookies at this site (Tools->Abine->Cookies Settings->Allow at this site).
