    I don't think you can block a site from using your feed specifically - although you might be able to block it from your entire site using .htaccess.

    Thanks! I think if I use the domain name it can't pick up the feed, make sense?

    I would hate to block it guessing at the IP because that would prevent others from seeing the site.

    I don't care if they SEE the site, just don't want them embedding the feed.
    Now I have to figure out how to enter than in the cpanel, or I'll have to get a copy of the htacess file (without the dot!) and alter it, put it back and rename it.

    (I learned it will be invisible otherwise!)

    OOohhh thanks ! It worked. I simply went into the cpanel into the IP Deny button and voila. The feed cannot be grabbed.
