I was wondering if some Python module were available to identify a<br>
user through their browser, like it's done on the Panopticlick site:<br>

I'd like to ban abusive users, and it seems like a good solution,<br>
since few users will think of installing a different browser, and<br>
there are few mainstream browsers anyway.<br>
<br>
Thank you.<br>
