Mike Rowe, 17, is up against Microsoft, which wants to shut down his Web site Mikerowesoft.com.

Through its law firm in Canada, Microsoft has offered him $10 US -- what Rowe paid last August to register the domain.

He replied asking for some financial assistance for losing the name and site. He told the lawyers how much work he put into the business and said the domain name was worth at least $10,000.

Considering his name is Mike Rowe, he is perfectly entitled to the domain. Perhaps if his name was *not* Mike Rowe, then there might be a case to answer for cyber-squatting etc...
