A domain name dispute is just what it sounds like: a dispute over the rightful use of an internet domain name. Someone might register a domain name that is similar to the name or trade-mark of an existing business. Sometimes this is done to fool people into thinking that the registrant is associated with that business. Other time it may be an example of cybersquatting, buying up a domain name for the purpose of selling it back to the person who has a legitimate business interest in the name. If someone has registered a domain name for some illegitimate purpose against your business, you have certain rights and remedies available to you.
