Most webmasters will hand them over quickly, soon as they get an email from Microsoft attorney. Not many can face Microsoft in court, they simply can't afford. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

IMHO
If they come after you the best thing to do would be to just hand over the domains and hope they don't sue you. -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --

Usage if very important in trademarks, but you can't register a name like AppleComputers and sell t-shi -- This message may have been cut off and the rest will only be shown to members. To become a member, click here --
