i definately support VW on this one. nothing i hate worse than coming up with a spam site full of popups and spamware. --- 16.11.2005  MarkenFlash VW obtains typo domain Volkswagen AG of Wolsburg has managed to bring about the transfer of the domain volkswagn.com, during an action before the tribunal of the WIPO. The domain was lodged in the ownership of the Digi Real Estate Foundation from Panama. Volkswagen was able to point to his international recognition and to substantiate the continued existence of its trademark rights since 1949. Because no statement of any sort was put forward from the side of the domain owner, the tribunal had no difficulty in latching on to the arguments put forward by the complainant and ordering the transfer of the domain. |
