So a trademark holder should register every possible permutation of their trademark in every TLD? It just seems that my client would be punished by following the UDRP (the fees) for someone else's trademark infringement. My client is discussing this matter with their lawyers and perhaps the UDRP isn't the best step to take at this time. > Any domain that expires is deleted from the dns weeks before.

They have been scaling back their internet presence but they now realize that there are still several sites that point to the old domain name (i.e. domain-name.com) and even though they currently are using domain.com, many people still associate domain-name.com with them.
