Cloaking Tool

mdurkee · 08-24-2007, 10:59 PM

Not sure what this tool should be doing but when I put in my url it comes back with this completely different web site in another country. Is it broken or do I just not understand what it is doing?
Thanks for your help.

Something TOTALLY wrong with that as it is claiming that I am cloacking my site with some other site, and that the content I am displaying to browsers is some bitechnology site or some such ??

YEAH! So we are in agreement that there is something wrong with the tool? Is there someone we should go to here or what? It freaks me out a little.

No matter what URL you enter, the same results are being returned. 12,065 characters in the upper box, and 167 in the lower. My guess is that when the script was being written, a dummy URL was placed in the script to test it, and was never replaced with the entered text. I have never seen the tool before, so it is obviously relatively new. As far as getting it fixed, I don't see that happening anytime soon. There is no one that is here that can fix it or even has the ability to access the script so that it can be fixed. My best advice is to not use that tool. If you need a cloak detector, then perhaps there is another better one somewhere on the internet.

Thanks Jumpen,
At least it helps to know that there is most likely dummy text in there. That makes sense. Thanks for looking into it.

The cloaking checker tool will most likely start working again soon, just give it sometime and im sure it will be up and running again
