@1355 : Dont Worry!

In org.apache.commons.httpclient.params there is one class called "DefaultHttpParamsFactory.java". In that class the default param is set.

 protected HttpParams createParams() {
        HttpClientParams params = new HttpClientParams(null);

        params.setParameter(HttpMethodParams.USER_AGENT, "Jakarta Commons-HttpClient/3.1");
.

}

If a particular parameter value has not been set, this value will be drawn here.

I think it may help you..
