They have no legitimate claim on the others unless they are using it in an infringing manner. ancestray.com & ancestrys.com go to the same page which is basically a mini-site whose results simply show adsense with the top advertiser being you know who. ancestry1.com is a parked page which top advertiser is again, ancestry.com The others aren't resolving so what exactly is the claim there?

ancestry1.com is a parked page which top advertiser is again, ancestry.com

The others aren’t resolving so what exactly is the claim there?

I can register business1.com without infringing on business.com. In fact, Business2.com was the web address for Business 2.0 the magazine. JP – good point.

In real life there are tons of companies that simply append a letter or number to the end of a generic term then trade under that name. Even PPC should be fine, but sketcher in UDRP I think as long as stuff like ancestry1.com isn’t showing ppc ads they should be alright (depending on panelist).
