Abstract
A method and apparatus that detects mirrored host pairs using information about a large set of pages, including URLs. The identities of the detected mirrored hosts are then saved so that browsers, crawlers, proxy servers, or the like can correctly identify mirrored web sites. The described embodiments of the present invention look at the URLs of pages hosts to determine whether the hosts are potentially mirrored.
