Okay, I don't believe this is possible to do, using the techniques described on that page. So, let me re-iterate my question: has anyone scripted a foreign subframe on Vista IE?
If not, is there any way to "attach" to a frame, in the same way that you can attach to a window?

In the meaintime if you've not already done so you might want to read the bottom of this page, http://wiki.openqa.org/display/WTR/Frames and the link to the info on 'cross frame scripting and security' I'd also double check all the domains and sources for the content of the various frames and try to make sure that all of them are in the same security group, which to get the most permissions would probably need to be 'trusted sites'. Unfortunately what you are trying to do would appear to look to IE and Vista as a potential cross site scripting attack, which is a very serious security vulnerabillity, and vista is right to try and mitigate against it. XSS atttacks are one of the more common ways that malevelent sites manage to install stuff like botware and other malware onto user's machines, and play a big part in a lot of current worms that spread via "social engineering" attacks (basically IM, twitter etc varients of the classic 'i love you' worm) see my 'skeptical computing' rant on my blog at http://resolvedtotest.com for an example of such a worm.
