Typing the about: in the url bar will normally give:

SRWare Iron 7.0.520.0 (Official Build 63000)
WebKit 534.7
V8 2.3.11.17
User Agent Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US) AppleWebKit/534.7 (KHTML, like Gecko) Iron/7.0.520.0 Chrome/7.0.520.0 Safari/534.7

After starting chrome with the command

you can now use the switch: -user-agent >>>

"C:\Program files\SRWare Iron\iron.exe" --user-agent="Mozilla/4.0 (compatible;MSIE 6.0; Windows NT 5.1)"

There is an easier way. Just create a file called "UA.ini" in your iron folder with your desired userstring inside. Then restart Iron.
