My fear is that they are looking for old browsers with vulnerabilities (like
cross site scripting) and trying to steal cookies etc.

If you ever do find out why someone is framing your site, I hope you will
let us all know, I for one am very curious.

I don't see how they can do you any actual damage unless they somehow
intercept orders intended for you.

I know that search-engine optimization methods used to include strategies
like this, I think to make it look like there are lots of domains mirroring
your content which somehow boosts the ranking.  I thought the search
engines had pretty much kiboshed that kind of bullshit by now, but maybe
this is a leftover from a search-engine company you hired some time ago?

Here's the registrant if you're interested, maybe somebody else knows of
them too"

Q:How many Bush Administration officials does it take to change a light
bulb?
A:None. There is nothing wrong with the light bulb; its condition is
improving every day. Any reports of its lack of incandescence are
delusional spin from the liberal media. Illuminating rooms is hard work.
That light bulb has served honorably, and anything you say undermines the
lighting effort. Why do you hate freedom?
