Microsoft Files Complaint over Three Domain Names

Microsoft Files Complaint over Three Domain Names : MSNJournal.com ,MSNFoto.com and MicrosoftW.com

Microsoft has filed a complaint with the National Arbitration Forum,asserting legal rights over MSNJournal.com ,MSNFoto.com and MicrosoftW.com domain names .

Microsoft should expect the National Arbitration Forum order the domain names to be transferred,considering the company owns both the "MSN" and "Microsoft" mark.

The National Arbitration Forum will examine if the domain names are confusingly similar to the trademarked name.Moreover,it will examine if the owner of the disputed domain names has rights over it and if the domains are being used in bad faith.The domain names will be passed over to Microsoft if it falls under all three of these stipulations.

The case is still pending compliance checks with the National Arbitration Forum .
