The number following the Mozilla/ portion will give you a rough estimate as
to the browser version. However, some versions (6.x, 7.x) share a number
(Mozilla/5.0), and so you cannot determine for certain without the full user
agent string.
See:

http://www.mozilla.org/build/revised...t-strings.html
Conceivably, although I can't name a specific package doing this, firewall
software could change the user-agent string for privacy reasons.
