This is highly common practice for those type sites. If you look through back threads here, you'll find about 10-15 similar stories ranging from a year or more ago.

What is new in all this, is that these 3rd level domain proxy sites are ripping the content out of cached pages at search engines. Thus, they don't even visit your site to rip it off.

(this is why many of us were so angry at MSN for not supporting Googles robots NoCache tag)

Unless you want it ripped off - never allow a search engine or anyone to cache or copy your pages.

¹ although they call it caching, what search engines do is not actually caching.
