http://www.technoheitz.com/ looks nothing like i-antz. It doesn't even render correctly in FF 1.5
You know what they say: "Imitation is the greatest form of flattery." -

Agreed, adjustafresh, on both comments. They look nothing alike, and the quote is so true.
Arun, I do not believe either of the examples you provided are really rips. The first one might be a case of a little overzealous inspiration, but not as bad as most things I've seen.

Sorry Guys...

Freshman: i am really sorry ! I remove my Comments

Thats ok, Cheers Arun

They are similar is many aspects, though the 2nd link is a lot less poor quality. -
I agree the both look nothing alike but please...
-
There are indeed some similarities in the menu items and placement location, but nothing that would stand up in a court of law. Arun, I wouldn' t stress out about it, because your site looks so much better that no one would ever think they could be related.
How does one find out about a copycat site anyhow? Not that anyone would be interested in ripping off one of mine :) -
http://www.copyscape.com Help me to find this..

There is definitely more than "inspiration" involved in this case. The content in each section is a straight rip, and the header images for Corporate Profile and Products and Services are pulled straight from your site.
I would start by contacting them directly and kindly asking them to remove all of your original material. Be specific, and cite specific examples. For instance, a quick look at their source code can reveal a lot:
i-Antz Solutions_files/checker.gif
i-Antz Solutions_files/spacer.gif
I'd say you have a pretty case against them.
Oh, and your site does look much better. : ) -

I would save their source code before contacting them as well. Granted, a smart person could say that you had modified the code yourself to make it look like they stole from you, but a smart person wouldn't have used the "Save as Web Page, Complete" function in their browser and then posted the result on their site with only slight modifications. I mean, if I were going to steal your site and not change something, it would have been your layout and design - what they did was just horrid. And then they go and put a copyright notice on the bottom. Nice.
Of course, I think their stupidity offends me more than their theft or lack of design ability. -

Use a tool that downloads the entire site. Use the ScrapBook firefox extension.
-
Try to contact them, make some screenshots of their pages with your images.
I'm a member of cristalab, and last week we found this site that had copied the old flash header (including logo), and even it have some "hide" buttons under "L.Mayores" button that still opens pages in cristalab.
Cristalab's webmaster want to post something about this in the weblog. -
That's a pathetic act of stealing. It's clear that you are dealing with a lazy noob in terms of flahs (at least). Apart from the hidden buttons you told us about under the logo, I can still see tiny white rectangles that were used for your submenues under "L. Mayores" & "Columnas". It even has a bug in the overall control of the menu that forces a refresh on that swf whenever I roll over the "former" parent menu buttons.
A big ol' boo to the webdev of hitazos.com
What actions have you taken against him to this point ? -

Not to be a jerk Arun ...
But I see two separate pieces of ... well, I really won't go there. Arun, I know you have been a member for some time, but seriously your posts are becoming a bit rediculous. A few days ago you were trying to get hired for $6/hr and now you're saying a boring, ugly site is trying to steal your boring, ugly site. SKILLSHARE. Interpret that as you will, but that's what that forum seems to be. -
"? Nothing is alike at all..."
It's either us that need to take vacations, or they've already changed their design to some quick made one to make sure they don't get their asses sued. -
guys this post is like half a year old, look at the dates!
