The owners of a convenience store chain are asking a Pennsylvania federal judge to shut down a pornographic Web site based in Denmark because some may mistakenly connect it with Wawa Foodmarket's wholesome corporate image. The porn site is run by Virtual Domain Buyers, which registered wawawa.com as an Internet domain name. The store's lawyer argues that the choice of letters for the site violates Wawa's well established federal trademarks. Wawa has it's own site, wawa.com.
