Notes:
1. gTLD stands for global Top Level Domain, that is any domain with a .com, .net, or .org extension. ccTLD stands for country code Top Level Domain, that is any domain with an .mx (Mexico) extension, for example, which means a Top Level Domain within a country.
2. We do not claim that this is a definitive list of all domains that fit an *infoworld* search. Our search has been exhausting but not exhaustive.
3. Some of the registered domains that are apparently Non-IDG may have been registered for IDG by third parties, though all functioning or parked Non-IDG domains show no evidence of having anything to do with IDG or its related companies. None of the 32 other Non-IDG sites or valid addresses deny any affiliation with IDG or infoworld.com either, and none of them provide a clickthru to infoworld.com.
4. We saw no evidence of any site that could reasonably be mistaken for infoworld.com.
5. We are unaware of any of the above domains other than ourselves being sent letters by IDG.
6. Unlike einfoworld.com, many of the other functioning *infoworld* sites are commercial sites, some of the parked or registered but non-functional sites also show evidence of being intended for commercial activity. And unlike einfoworld.com, many of the commercial sites have something to do with the computer field, for example, computer training or computer hardware sales.
7. Also unlike einfoworld.com, some of the registered sites are listed as for sale.
8. We have not included examples which have an address like these imaginary ones: www.awebhost.com/~infoworld/mypage.html or www.awebhost.com/infoworld.html, though such do exist, again apparently without any IDG affiliation, or denial of same, or a clickthru to infoworld.com.
9. We have not attempted to verify if non-functional web addresses are being used for purposes other than websites, they may be functional for email, for example, at: info@domain-in-right-hand-column-containing-the-word-infoworld.com . We are comparing websites only.
10. The IDG domains e-infoworld.net, e-infoworld.org, einfoworld.net, and einfoworld.org were registered after our registration of einfoworld.com, and apparently after another party's registration and subsequent operation of e-infoworld.com.
