Joe, there is code that you can insert to prevent this, it forces your page
out of the frames. I don't have the reference on hand, but try a javascript
site. There are tons, I added this to a couple of pages, after I read about
a problem where a newspaper (Shetland News, I believe) in England was
hijacking competitor's stories using the frame launch.
This is the line I use, it may not be the most elegant solution, but, as
far as I know, it works.
