(includes recap)

  The Office of Fair Trading in the UK is trying to close a website that 
is criticizing their position on Microsoft http://www.oft.me.uk. The 
website pillories the OFT for lack of action on Microsoft's 
anti-competitive practices, while the OFT still claims there have been 
no complaints even after at least one recorded deliver complaint. The
site does not back any OFT copyright, however former Director General 
John Bridgeman is lampooned. The website owner Tarquin Mills has received 
a series of solicitors letter from OFT, while Fasthosts stop being the 
register after they got one too. The last letter says that they will seek 
an injunction (in the High Court propably) to take Tarquin's domian, free 
speech and all his assets away. This letter seems to be produced by the 
hot-shot solicitors at the Treasury, based near the high court. The 
website owner vows to keep his property and not let MicrosOFT lap dogs 
silence him, "I will see the OFT in court." For the solicitors letters

works again.).
