Having trouble with several websites that do not display anything but

Anyone know where this might be coming from? Browser does not seem to
matter, both Firefox and IExplorer do the same. Strangely enough the
www.google.comsitealways works OK but for examplewww.kingston.com
regularly shows this problem. We did several spyware scans on the
system but nothing more that a bunch of tracking cookies.

Is there a common factor to the websites with the iframe problem,
do they use the same CMS, are they on the same server, etc.?
How are the pages with the iframe line generated?

It seems that the iframe is in the source code server-side,
so it does not depend on the browser,
what matters is if the browsers support frames.
Google and other search engines do not process the inner content of
frames
as content part of the current page,
(they might follow the URL in the src attribute if there is one)
so probably this is why Google search results are is not affected,
but search engines do not like hidden elements, with width and height
0 or 1px.

Not really, a lot of sites show the problem build with different CMS
systems running on different servers yet Google never does.
However, If I look at the sourcecode of the Google page there is no
iFrame entry on the first line. The sites that come up empty do show
this line.

Something is injecting HTML code in the HTML stream coming from the
webserver, I just can't imagine how and where.

Sorry, I did not understand the problem.
I can see kingston.com OK, without the iframe in the source.
Do you mean that you see the wrong version in your computer
of www.kingston.com with the iframe in the source now?

This is what I see when requesting the source of the page:

<iframe src='xx' width=0 height=0> <STYLE type="text/css">
A
{
TEXT-DECORATION: none
}
A.boldlink
{
FONT-WEIGHT: bold;
FONT-SIZE: 12px
}
..a_pad1...............


What browser are you using?
Tried IE6 & IE7, Firefox 2 and 3

Does it happen only on one computer when you look at many websites?
I have 2 other PC's here from which 1 is now also showing this
behaviour, the other still seems OK.

Just found out that if I use an anonymoyus proxy on the Internet in my
browser the problem does not arise??? ISP?

Thanks so far.
