The primary focus of this research is the protection to the trade markers in online businesses. Weaknesses and strengths of MYDRP Rules and Policy are identified. To gather the needed data, a content analysis and interview were conducted. From the analysis and interviews, the current law, MYDRP, have loopholes and it is insufficient to provide protection to the trade marker's domain name. In conducting our research, we had made comparative studies on the law used to combat cybersquatting in USA, UK, India and Canada with the current measures in Malaysia to address this issue. From the comparisons, we examined why the laws that are used in addressing the domain name disputes in other countries are more effective than the one used in Malaysia. In the light of this problem the government of Malaysia should come out with a new regulative measure in combating cybersquatting as in the USA such as US Anti-Cybersquatting Consumer Protection Act 1999. This in turn benefits the court as it provides the court guidelines in solving the issue of cybersquatting. This also helps in reducing internet fraud as online business will be more protected and secured. 2012-06 Thesis https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/32895/ https://ir.uitm.edu.my/id/eprint/32895/1/32895.pdf text en public degree Universiti Teknologi MARA Faculty of Law J., Sheila (Dr.)
