    (I wanted to post this question to the web-hosting forum, but it’s closed, so maybe someone here has come across this same problem and could answer my questions?)

    On their website, company A have a link to company B. Company B does not want company A doing this and have asked for it to be removed. Company A carry on ignoring the request.

    - Is there any point in contacting company A’s web hosting provider and making a complaint?
    - Do company B have any leg to stand on in demanding that the link is removed?

    Thanks in advance.

    Depends on the hosting provider. Worth a try.

    - Do company B have any leg to stand on in demanding that the link is removed?

    Not really. There's no precedent in Ireland.

    What webserver are you running? It's easy to redirect the link back to them, or print a message to the user telling them that it's an unauthorised link (or whatever you want) based on HTTP_REFERER.
