Update to story theft debacle posted here:

Searching for your username and using the site:www.ebooks-tree.com selector will not return results, even if you have stories there. I just tested it with several authors (myself included) that I know were hit. I haven't found another way to search for users, besides going to the site and using its search engine.

Do not visit that site without up-to-date virus protection and AdBlock. Get a friend to search for you, if necessary. And if they ask you for anything, leave and run a scan, just in case. (I might be overly cautious, but better safe than sorry.)

On the bright side, considering that they apparently have full-text versions of original published fiction on their site as well (i.e. full works by Rowling, Gaiman, Scalzi, etc...,) they're not going to last long. Not on that URL, anyway.
