Block Feedreader.com on vbulletin 4.

[synseal]

My site's content is duplicated by FeedReader and indexed at Google. This forms some sort of content duplication to me, and I believe it does harm to my forum. I have had instances where we was at position 1 on google to find feedreader taken its place and my index gone!

Does anyone know how to block feedreader.com from iframing my site or is their a modification that will block this type of thing.

For instance

http://browse.feedreader.com/c/TechKings/417464980
http://browse.feedreader.com/c/TechKings/411661658
http://browse.feedreader.com/c/TechKings/505121322

I have so far tried blocking their ip addresses to no avail.

deny from 67.210.247.197
deny from 67.210.247.247
deny from 67.210.247.193
deny from 67.210.247.196


I also tried this in my httpd.conf but it hasn't worked.

RewriteBase /
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} bo.lt/ua [OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} feedreader.com
RewriteRule . - [F,L]

Any help greatly appreciated.

Anything please, isn't this a problem for anyone else? so much of my forum content is copied under their address and this will have a horrid effect on anyone's forum?

This thread via them out ranks my original on google now!

I have asked feedreader to remove our content and stop any other content copying several times but we after 2 months are still awaiting a response...:erm:

Since you posted that I have put in 4 requests for them to stop and they still continue.

Awstats snippet, this is only a few.

How do I go about enforcing this issue with them as they are clearly ignoring me.

Ok this fix throws the site outside the iframe and loads your own page.

Can someone have a look at this code and tell me if it will hurt my forum?

Added this to forumdisplay / showthread templates above </head>

<!--  iframe redirect starts -->
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
if (window!= top) top.location.href = location.href;
</script>
<!--  iframe redirect stops -->

Here is their links which now redirect to my own site.
