However, "Kodak" is also a famous trademark, but we have a "W. Kodak Jewelers" in New Jersey. It might be that the family's last name is Kodak, so the camera/film company can't keep them from using the name.

You realise that a trademark is only valid in certain fields, generally, and that hundreds of companies can have the same trademark if they are trading in different fields?
In theory that is true, but in the real world not so. Try and register a trademark with the name of Microsoft Eye Care and see what happens. Even though Microsoft is not in the eye care field, they will sue and win.

The other site may be seeking information on the fields in which you have a trademark or potential trademark to determine whether there is a potential trademark conflict between you and them.

The simple phrase "assassin 4 hire" seems like one which could be quite hard to obtain a trademark for, since it's a fairly well known phrase.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Website-Trademarking-15583456 Tue, 28 Feb 2006 20:16:58 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/Re-Website-Trademarking-15579860 --

This is a very complicated field, and we ain't lawyers. I suggest you do some reading, then consult a lawyer if you feel you need to take action against someone or to protect yourself.

In fact, if they trademark it first, they could conceivably take your domain from you.

Disclaimer: IANAL
IANAL either, but you don't have to register a trademark to own that trademark. It depends on each party's purposes and how long the trademark has been in use. If I were to register 'A4H' or whatever today, I wouldn't have a valid claim to take his domain name.
