My experience with cyber squatting is that most of them have no intelligence to alter the .com to a .net or something else. Even a simple dash or underscore to seperate the words is usually available. For example, if your company is charbroil grills and charbroilgrills.com is taken then try charbroil-grills.com and I'll bet it's available.  I did this with several sites I've built and I have to admit, I feel like I outsmarted the cyber squatters. Someone commented before to think outside the box and I agree. One company even emailed me to see if I wanted to buy my name as a domain. If my name was Tom Jones they offered tomjones.com. Again, I bet if I checked tom-jones.com, it's available. It's just a tip for you out there. It worked for me. I'm sort of hesitant about submitting this comment because now everyone will know my little trick.
