Jo,


How about creating a product that quite obviously infringes another

company's Trade Mark. Then promoting a service which carries a heap of

hidden restrictions. Finally suggesting that the service is 'free' when in

fact you are charged when you wish to move elsewhere, redirect, or if you do

not use the service for 90 days.


The URL is www.freenetname.co.uk


Cheers,


Steve
