Ok lets put it out there:
I own:
www.sextubeland.com
And with respect to the copyrighted said trademarks:
They own:
www.sextube.com

They are stating I am infringing upon their trademark of 'sextube'.
Although clearly stating in:

Can I copyright my website?
The original authorship appearing on a website may be protected by copyright. This includes writings, artwork, photographs, and other forms of authorship protected by copyright. Procedures for registering the contents of a website may be found in Circular 66, Copyright Registration for Online Works.

Can I copyright my domain name?
Copyright law does not protect domain names. The Internet Corporation for Assigned Names and Numbers (ICANN), a nonprofit organization that has assumed the responsibility for domain name system management, administers the assignation of domain names through accredited registers.
Let it be know for the record, my said domain of www.sextubeland.com was a PARKED domain until yesterday when these allegations have arrived.
There was no content whatsoever that would have any infringing names/content described as infringing. Simply because of my domain name they are accusing me of infringement and nothing more.

Please let me know any input you may have.
