Hey Folks,
A friend of mine who registered a domain name for his own use has received
a threatening letter from a rather large corporation demanding that he
transfer the domain to them. He's wondering what he should do. Any and
all advice will be very much appreciated. Here's the story. My friend
Derek made up a name for himself (i'm not sure what his inspiration
was): Johnny Hazard. At some point he registered the corresponding domain
name. Well, he just got a letter from Hearst corporation who apparently
think they should own it for some reason. He is not using it for any sort
of commercial enterprise whatsoever. He doesn't want to sell it, he
doesn't want to do anything with it except personal use. Any advice?
thanks
