Shockwave Rips FlashGuru

Last week i checked my weblogs as i usually do on a daily basis, to see alot of requests for images coming from www.shockwave.net, i decided to jump over to www.shockwave.net to see if they had linked me up, but to my suprise, they had actually clean and blatently stolen my ‘Flash Blogs’ and ‘Flash Resources’ panels from the right-hand side of this page and every other page. I checked my logs the next day to find that there were no more request from this url, so i checked back again to find that they had now copied over all the images from my server and changed the html code so that all the images are loaded from their server instead of mine. The images are named the same, they are the same colours, same style and the links are in the same order that they were on my pages on the date of the theft. Excuse my language but that pisses me off, bigstyle! Checkout www.shockwave.net and scroll half way down the page to the ‘Flash Blogs & Resources’ section to see the rip.
