If I'm understanding you correctly that isn't what I'm seeing. If in
Mozilla I do Help -> About Mozilla I get a new window with the red
Mozilla logo and next to it:

Mozilla 1.7.2
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040803

and then below that some copyright information.

I'm using:

$ rpm -qa | grep mozilla | sort
mozilla-1.7.2-0.2.0
mozilla-chat-1.7.2-0.2.0
mozilla-devel-1.7.2-0.2.0
mozilla-dom-inspector-1.7.2-0.2.0
mozilla-j2re-1.4.2-9.1.fc2.dag
mozilla-js-debugger-1.7.2-0.2.0
mozilla-mail-1.7.2-0.2.0
mozilla-nspr-1.7.2-0.2.0
mozilla-nspr-devel-1.7.2-0.2.0
mozilla-nss-1.7.2-0.2.0
mozilla-nss-devel-1.7.2-0.2.0

Are you sure you haven't installed something which sets the UA string to
something other than the default, or altered your prefs.js or user.js
files by hand?
