    Maybe this is already known but I wanted to share this with you. After running a successful website that nets me 2500+ unique hits a day (not including crawlers/bots) Looking at my hit logs I stumbled across a site called lootspace that was copy-pasta my entire site and adding a pop over with rogue advertisements

    After reviewing the site I saw they were using frames. It took me a bit to realize how to resolve the issue. Finally in public_html/.htaccess I added the following code and it resolved my issue

    Header set X-Frame-Options DENY
    Code (markup):
    POOF, Content went blank. Very useful. Just wanted to share this with other members.

    Thanks

    So, they were loading your entire site into an iframe? Could you not use an htaccess to deny their webserver's ip from access, and have the same effect?

    Yes, an IP block would work I guess however it does not stop others from doing the same thing. To each is own, but I love this resolution
