All techie gurupeople need to start getting lawyers. When I have a few on payroll I'll let you guys know, you can hire them cheap from time to time!
Seriously. We need heavier boots. Least of all against each other.
Make sure you see if andrei is right and just transfer the host by going to the new host to get it done - legally the original host presumably will just have to make the transfer. They can't really blackmail you the way they are doing (if I had lawyers maybe they could help you sue the guy for blackmailing you, which is of course called "extortion" in circs like that and maybe that's really what you could prove he's doing).
If all else fails this is your most noble plan - sacrifice that domain. Operate with a new one and when it expires buy it back.
however I think andrei sounds like he's right - you should manage to get it back and bypass the mofos.
btw I really dislike your page. As usual it's a page that takes ages to load and is covered in annoying slow-loading objects including tonnes of ads, particularly google ads in one's face as usual, as google's ads often are.
if i was being constructive i could say - don't you think you should make the content about acne far more in control of your pages than adverts and other secondary stuff? wouldn't your users appreciate that, don't you think? your site has excellent content - so it's a shame to let it appear, even if only slightly, to be as annoying and slow-loading as a spam site (which your site is definitely not).
since you are in the UK you could try the best host in the UK, reliable, award-winning MDs and amazing service, night and day, called Cerberus Networks.
