I had a mini heart attack this morning going through the usual WMT checks on my sites to find that one of the better sites has its home page listed 404 in crawl errors. Sure enough clicking on the link WMT has which is http://www.example.com/ comes up 404 however the page is there. so i checked the source code and it was really http://www.example.com/%20 so there is a space at the end but in WMT it show http://www.example.com/ with no space. The link is coming from a very bad looking asian site that i am assuming is doing a bit of scraping but i cannot read it...anyway i do not want to do any redirecting to capture it..my concern is does google see this url as the same as my home page and that it cannot find it or does it see it for what it is a different url as it has a space added to the end....maybe just paranoid but would like to know..thanks
