: : Company A owns domain name: "sitename.com". "sitename.com" is not a trade mark and "sitename" is not a trade mark.
: : Company B register "sitename.net" and use it for his own services.

: : Scenarios:
: : 1. Does Company A have any right to "sitename.net"? As I wrote "sitename" or "sitename.com" is not a trade mark.
: : 2. Company A register trade mark "sitename" or "sitename.com" after a given period (domain name "sitename.net" is already registered). Does Company A have any right to "sitename.net"?

: : Thank you for your help.
