Change the user agent in the header of your request as follows:
NSString* userAgent = @"Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.8) Gecko/20051111 Firefox/1.5 BAVM/1.0.0";
NSURL* url = [NSURL URLWithString:@"http://www.stackoverflow.com/"];
NSMutableURLRequest* request = [[[NSMutableURLRequest alloc] initWithURL:url] autorelease];
[request setValue:userAgent forHTTPHeaderField:@"User-Agent"];
NSURLResponse* response = nil;
NSError* error = nil;
NSData* data = [NSURLConnection sendSynchronousRequest:request returningResponse:&response error:&error];
NSString *result = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:data encoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding];
NSLog(@"%@",result);
Get current user agents / search agents for specific browsers:

A user agent usually does not matter.
Just use the default, or better, don't worry about it.
