Is it legal to buy a closed company’s domain name?

This is the example:

1. Company A closes down/shuts down.
2. Company A’s domain name expires and is for sale.
3. Company B wants that domain and buys it.
4. Company B then forwards that domain to their main site.

The main question: If Company A went out of business, is anything mentioned above illegal/grounds for litigation, etc.? Note, both companies sell roughly the same product.

The domain name that i want to register for my website has one word that is another company’s?

domain name and possibly it might also be a trademark name of that company.

Any legal issues if i include that one word as part of my site’s domain name?

Can I use a registered trademark in my company’s domain name? The registered trademark is not in the co.s name

I want to use the word FICO in my company’s domain name (example – www.ficosRcool.com) but it is a registered trademark. I know that I cannot use the trademark in my company’s name but am I breaking trademark law by using the word FICO in my domain?

Thanks guys!
I really do want to use the word fico as the company who trademarked it uses it. for instance, www.getabetterfico.com

Thanks!
