I am probably opening up a can of worms that has already been opened on this list and I admit I don't have much experience in this area but I will say that I can't believe that is true if it were taken to court. However, in the real world I understand that it is not feasible to take someone to court for a hundred dollars but arn't there lawsa agianst this in most countries. Don't the police want to hear about this type of fraud? Again maybe I am naive but I can't believe the person would be able to keep the fraudulently purchased domain name and use it for ten years openly when everyone knows it was purchased illegally. Is there not some way to gather all these incidents together and have somebody "deregister" the domain names? How could the person protest against this when it was an illegal purchase in the first place. I just don't see how it could work for the perpetrator. Bob
