Someone copied a couple of pages off a site of mine. I tried to contact him and his host with no success since he is his own host. Eventually I posted a thread about his copying in a forum we are both members of, however instead of putting the pages down, he is now claiming that I am the one who copied off him. Besides this being entirely not the case, this person also left proof of his copying by leaving some links to my site in the code he copied off. Since this person wont listen decently. What can I do to knock him out?
First use wayback machine at www.archive.org to establish that you originally had the content. The have your solicitor write up a letter and have him send it directly to the owner of the website. Rarely do people keep the content up in that case.

This is really good information to keep on file, guys. I see this issue coming up in other forums, too.
