Have you guys ever seen these sites before? I run across them every now and then. It says like xxx.com and displays your website, exactally like it is. You can browse it and everything.

 

http://www.cekaf.com

 ping http://www.cekaf.com
ping: unknown host http://www.cekaf.co

(if you dont have a website, try to ping it)

 

I'm sure it's just a simple php thing but what's the point? I found one that was an entire forum with members and everythign! But not me, cause it was too busy displaying my website instead of the forum!

Now that is just plain weird. I guess they told the DNS server to simply point to 127.0.0.1 for that domain instead of pointing to a "real" Internet IP address. I wonder why someone did that?

This isn't the only site that does it. It was just the only one I could find.

 

Like I said above, one site was a forum. I visited it from my school but at my computer it always showed my website. Google even had a cache of it -- a random forum about computers or something. This means they had to have configured it to let google through or something. I don't know why, though.
