Hello all!

I need some help on this one.

I am having problems with the company that holds my domain. They have locked out my access to it and locked it down so I can not move it to another company.

Is there any legel recourse or action that can be taken against this company for taking my money to register a domain and then cutting my access to it?

Thank you,

Doug

First make sure you are legal. This often happens if you are hosting some illegal content on that domain. If that is the case Governments can block such domains. If your sure you are legal, you might have been hijacked by a third party using your domain to host or relay illegal content. In such a case you would probably get assistance from your hoster to resolve that problem (step up security etc). If the company is locking your domain for another reason and you have some sort of proof that it is your domain you should be able to resolve the problem by acquiring an attorney to help.
