Yes it is. It's also viewable if you change your browser's user agent string to that of a search engine spider. How else do you think these sites manage to stay on the search engines' radars? > Experts Exchange is such a complete scam that I have it blocked in my > local /etc/hosts and excluded from google search results. Well, that's certainly up to you (personally I don't like them either, and I don't think the quality of their solutions is too hot in the first place). However, that doesn't change anything about the fact that there are ways to view Experts Exchange pages without having to log in. Can we now drop this boring and entirely off-topic subject? Thanks.
