Infoseek Frame

[Brett_Tabke]

A couple of weeks ago, I had a heated exchange with someone when I mentioned Infoseek was framing websites under certain conditions. At the time I didn't have a referring url to show them. Here is one [infoseek.go.com].

Shocking! when did this start?

I started to see that in my logs over 8 months ago Pete. I suspect it has been going on longer though...

Welcome to WmW Netcommr.

I have heard of this before but never seen it with own eyes.. Brett all they want is to get the surfer back to their site. YOU lose like that :(

[etones]

well i suppose askjeeves does the same thing..

its unfair though, less chance of our banners being clicked now.

Brett,
You made mention that they frame a site only under "certain" conditions. Do you or anyone here know these conditions?

[Brett_Tabke]

Welcome to the system Buckshot. Nice to see you here.

I think it is the MSN version of an IE5 Search Panel?

[drbill]

Brett I hate to get off track here but have you seen an increase in Go/Infoseek traffic?

Had one of my own pages appear in frames as well..

[rcjordan]

drbill, I've seen a slight increase in GO lately. Also, I just noticed one of my own pages in frames.

<script>
if(top.location != document.location)
top.location = document.location;
</script>
I just thought I'd put this code in here. It is small enough that it shouldn't jack up any algos too bad. Why let Go get away with it?

[Brett_Tabke]

I've tried that code, only works in IE?

[littleman]

I just did a few tests. I tried it in NS4.72, MSIE5.x, and Opera5. It worked fine in all.
