  >can you tell cpu from browser finger printing? In the context they're talking about, yes! 32 on 64 bit (on firefox at least) will have WOW64 on the header name, whereas 32 on 32 bit won't, and 64bit on 64 bit will have Win64.

    But isn't WoW64 for running 32-bit applications on a 64-bit version of Windows? I don't think WoW64 exists on 32-bit Windows. That'd make sense if they were running 32-bit Firefox on 64-bit Windows, but the article says a 32-bit OS on a 64-bit CPU. You'd think that would just look the same as a 32-bit OS on a 32-bit CPU in the headers, unless Firefox is going out their way to report a 32-bit OS on 64-bit hardware.
