UK Internet services provider and watchdog organization Virtual Internet is moving
into the Asia Pacific region through its new base in Sydney.

While Virtual Internet will offer domain name registration and Web
hosting for a range of enterprises, the company is also seeking to
establish its copyright protection service.

The Virtual Internet copyright protection tool, Net Searchers, will
enable trademark and copyright specialists, lawyers, trademark directors,
celebrities, brand managers and industry associations to patrol the
Internet for copyright infringements and intellectual property violations.

Initially, the company is launching two main sets of services, the first
aimed at ISPs and Web developers who will have the option of outsourcing
Web-hosting requirements to Virtual Internet, and the second a more
flexible hosting service catering for small to medium companies that are
using or planning to use the Internet as a commercial platform in the
future.
