Can someone else use my company or product name in their Internet domain name?

If they do not have a legitimate claim to the domain name, you may be able to recover it using one of the Internet domain name dispute resolution procedures. Alternatively, you may be able to take legal action against them if they are infringing your registered trade mark or 'passing off' (misleading the public into thinking that the website is associated with you).
