 Although curl can pretend to be normal browser by manipulating the agent
 in the GET request, we are still no following a browser pattern in
 fetching a page and all its related content.

 Hence, using Firefox directly to fetch payloads would increase the
 indistinguishibility of ST.

 However, this is a major tasks as it will changes the meaning of capacity
 of a payload, etc.
