                  That sucks, but you probably own a name with trademark infrigment

                          I have never had a problem with godaddy but they seem to be getting worse so I think i'm going to transfer them all to enom with the rest of my domains. Hey GoDaddy

                              i can guarantee you it's not a trademark. it's a made up word that i made up, and if you type that word into google, my pages are what comes up.

                              i dont' have any content on the site, except a few banners. tons of links to adult sites (affiliates).

                              it's a milf site.

                              ive' got hundreds of pages, and they're well ranked on google and yahoo.

                              wtf?

                                      why don't you just call the number and find out?

                                      godaddy sucks when it comes to this kind of thing. In the future i suggest you use someone else.

                                                  I think the problem in this case is DomainsByProxy Inc. and not GoDaddy

                                                      Do you spam?

                                                      if you do..someone is trying to find out who you really are....

                                                      Why the need for so much privacy?

                                                          It probably means someone complained about you for something.

                                                          Maybe GoDaddy just wants you to respond to a complaint?

                                                                          i just checked some of my pages on that domain, and sure enough, the word 'viagra' appears once or twice on a few pages in with a long list of other words such as mature pussy, fat mature women, etc., etc.,--- and sure enough, no viagra is for sale on my site anywhere.

                                                                          i keep calling domains by proxy and the dude who can tell me what's up isn't there.

                                                                          the word viagra isn't in my keyword list or title tags, and i'm not doing adwords or overture with this site.

                                                                          you think pfizer would get upset about their word viagra appearing in a list of words on my adult site?

                                                                          thanks for your input.

                                                                                          You can lose your domain for faking the info. too, so whats the real best answer?

                                                                                                      You can lose your domain for faking the info. too

                                                                                                                      Anyway,this is going way too theoretic and I don't have a clue how somebody should be able to hijack your registrar locked domains without lots of effort (faked passport,contracts etc.).

                                                                                                                                  in fact, i found 'viagra' about 200 times (once per page) on that domain. some in keyword tags, some in text on the page. never 'viagra' 100 times in a row, just once per page -- but there are a lot of pages.

                                                                                                                                  the dude at domains by proxy still hasn't called back or emailed back, i keep callin' him.

                                                                                                                                  you think it's a pfizer c&d?

                                                                                                                                      Remembers me of the time some years ago where nintendo sued domain owners who had any pokemon content which they weren't allowed to use.Or timewarner who sued online shops which sold unlicensed matrix stuff.

                                                                                                                                      If they get your infos and you're lucky you just have to sign an agreement that you'll never use the name viagra on your homepage again.

                                                                                                                                      If you're unlucky - settlement (few hundret up to thousands of dollars) or you'll get into a lawsuite.

                                                                                                                                      But normally just an agreement, good luck mate!

                                                                                                                                          in fact, i found 'viagra' about 200 times (once per page) on that domain. some in keyword tags, some in text on the page. never 'viagra' 100 times in a row, just once per page -- but there are a lot of pages.

                                                                                                                                          the dude at domains by proxy still hasn't called back or emailed back, i keep callin' him.
