Tom Cruise Fights for TomCruise.comNo target is too small for Mission: Impossible action star who now sues cyber squatter.
Tom Cruise is taking on an internet entrepreneur in a bid to win back TomCruise.com - almost ten years after it was registered.
Tom Cruise, who is busy promoting his new movie, will take his case to arbitrator the World Intellectual Property Organisation (WIPO).
Jeff Burgar, who has TomCruise.com registered to his Alberta Hot Rods company, is frequently called before the WIPO and is one of the world's
best known cyber squatters.
Jeff Burgar has won similar cases involving BruceSpringsteen.com and KevinSpacey.com, but has lost many others involving domain names for Michael Crichton, Pierce Brosnan and Celine Dion.
Academy Award-nominated and Golden Globe Award-winning American actor and film producer, Tom Cruise was described in 2005 by Hollywood economist Edward Jay Epstein as "one of the most powerful - and richest - forces in Hollywood".
