    Hello,
    I would like to find a tool which can detect cloaking (I have found a weird website which cache page is absolutely different from the actual one).
    In fact, the webmaster is known as a cheater.
    thanks for answers.

    "I have found a weird website which cache page is absolutely different from the actual one"

    One reason for this can be that , the website owner may have changed the site, where google has the old site in the cache. This once happened to my site where I changed the theme and some content, but in google cache, the old page was displayed.

    Anyway, I don't know about cloaking, but this tool can help detect web spam

    Thanks Angilina for your tool, but it's not exactly what I'm searching for.

    About the cache, yes of course in most of the cases the cache shows the former page.
    But in this case, it's not like that: The page in the cache did'nt exist (for the human visitors) before.
    I'm sure of it because I regularly screen this guy.

    There's a number of things you can do, turn off Javascript, switch useragents to Googlebot, check headers for redirects, check robots.txt, check page code, fetch the page via command prompt etc.

    What's the URL, i'll let you know.

    I think are the best advice you will get from any professional search engine optimizer, you need to know how to analyze web pages though ;)

    If you want to hang this guy, you "view source" of Google's cache. Then you "view source" of Yahoo's cache and then compair it to the current page's "view source" . The changes between them will give you a good idea of what techniques they are using.

    Then check out the last version saved by "WayBackMaching" to see what they have.

    But before you "rat him out", make sure that your site is virgin clean. G will look at both of your sites.
