Well as you've had the name Lasertank copyrighted
for over 5 years, that means it is ilegal to use the domain name lasertank without pemision. So do you give
me permision to regerster and use www.lasertank.co.uk? I dont want you
bringing a law suit on me :) heh

Thanks, I forgot that I Do have a copywrite. Isn't it, as long as
you have PUBLISHED your software then you have an automatic copywrite?
And I have published via the Internet my software for over 6 years.
