Getting a stolen domain back

Today I corresponded with Enrico Schaefer from Traverse Legal, a law company in Michigan that specializes in among other things domain theft. He wrote to me that the experience we had is common.  I didn’t hear anyone say that so clear before and it confirms that we are talking about a systemic problem which ICANN and registrars should address.  Check out his recommendations on how to protect domain names, he sees all the kinds of trouble people are getting into. Also, Wall Street Journal on September 25, 2007 ran an article with the headline Web-Address Theft Is Everyday Event. In the article, Bob Parsons, chief executive officer of GoDaddy.com says that hijacking occurs daily and that the frequency has increased as Internet use grows.
