    I've discovered someone using httrack to mirror my site in what looks like an attempt to cause me duplicate content problems.
    Anyone seen this before and know of a way of stopping them mirroring me?
    TIA.

    Try to find who's doing this, and contact him. Otherwise you can also try to contact google...

    Sure, you can try this..

    In htaccess of your root directory put
    This code will redirect the bot to a page called theft.htm
    Create a page called theft.htm on your domain and you can put in some nasty words about stealing your site.
    That will give them a shock :)

    - may or may not work
