correct,
depends on what is the procedure thats used for ripping though. I think the software automatically replaces the main site name. I still can't believe what honest use can be of that software. Legitimate copying can be done via direct DB callback's also if the aim is to maintain same content on two different forums.
Here is from the FAQ

Technically this will indeed result in what may be called 'duplicate content'. Particularly people concerned with boosting page count for SEO reasons may find this a limitation. However, remember that ICO-Content is not designed to be an SEO tool. It serves to help you get your forum going. Having said that, if your forum features a unique template, chances are this will not result in being duplicate content at all. The surrounding content will make the page unique (enough), and it only takes you posting one reply to each ICo-Content generated topic/thread for it to be truly unique. Read the opinions of a vBulletin expert on this matter here. Another point to remember is that if you set ICo-Content to run regularly, say every 5 minutes, chances are that the search engine spiders find the content on your forum before they do so on Yahoo! or elsewhere. At the end of the day, ICo-Content is designed to be a community booster, not a page count inflation tool!
