When someone scrapes your pages, you can also file DMCA reports with Google, and they might pull the copied pages and sites. It can take some time, but might be worth it if you're feeling vindictive.

Yes he has a link to me but this method of taking someone's content without permission is called scrapping or splogging. It's done so he or others can use other blogger content to earn money with ads. Do you get it now why this is wrong and considered theft? @Karen: If you check the link in my post that says “his site” you’ll see he copied one of my posts, including the RSS copyright disclaimer, without my permission.
