@cw1865 Thank you for the link. I'm going to read it now.

Its going to boil down to the 'xyz' - if it is a nice non-generic name, then the fact that they are tacking a .com on the end of it is of little consequence. Good example would be Ford. Ford sells cars, the name 'Ford' has nothing to do with cars whatsoever. If somebody took ford.com and started selling cars, well, its likely going to be ruled trademark infringement. If the 'xyz' is generic, ie. widgets and they took widgets.com, well then you're going to have a more difficult time enforcing the trademark.
