You can put in a backorder request (go to http://www.godaddy.com, search for your domain name on the Home page ... you'll see that it's "taken" and there will be an option to backorder it). Then hope you can get it back if the current owner lets it expire. You can also do a whois.net search to find out who bought it and try to buy it back from them. People usually want WAY too much, though. Put godaddy.com in your address book so this doesn't happen again ...

If someone else has registered your domain name, It is too late. You can't do anything through your registrar now. But you can contact the current registrar of your old domain name and ask him for a domain bargain if he/she wishes to sell it.

You can get the contact details for the current domain holder by having a whois lookup at http://www.whoisxy.com/ Good luck.
