cybersquatter

A person who registers or acquires a domain name that is confusingly similar to a mark in which another person has rights (via a trademark, for instance); provided the cybersquatter is attempting to take advantage of the goodwill of the trademark holder.
The person who registers kitchen.com is probably not a cybersquatter, while a person who registers marthastewartkitchen.com probably is.
