    I have noticed that there are a lot of websites that are framing other websites pages. The humor industry seems to be the main type of site that does this. I have seen humor sites that link to video clips etc and they keep a speacial frame at the top with their logo and adverts in it.

    Can sites get into trouble for doing this?

    I can see both sides of the arguement, but I would like to know for someone that is certain of the rules. If a site was unhappy with you doing this to their content could they

    a) ask you to remove it
    b) force you to remove it
    c) Get your site banned or take legal action


    Thanks
