Domain watch and stolen domains

I would like to have more information about defensive registration service
for .com domain.

The fact is that 3 days ago I bought a ".com" domain, for my site (for the
Internet domain registering site I am), and today someone registered it
(and it was NOT ME). I buy a domain, and 3 days after someone registers
it.

The fact is this domain has been register here today, at Tucows registrar.
In fact, I imagine that the name was really good, and "someone here" liked
it. Or maybe it was the registrar (not Tucows) where I bought the domain,
who is in connection with a "black market".

Well, imagine how I fell, because it was a possible name for my company.

So who better than you, users of open-srs to inform me about this. In
fact Tucows is the the list of my possible providers.

What are the extensions of "defensive registration", what does this
service, and who can use it ?
