I visited buystream.com to discover that part of the page was beneath the 

fold and that there was no vertical scroll bar in order for me to move 

off-page items into view. Knowing a little than your average user I 

discovered that the index page of buystream.com was a frameset which 

actually linked to http://209.202.77.55/ and for some reason whoever 

created the index page had turned the scroll bar off. This also meant the 

site's terms of use and privacy statement could not be seen.


Forgive me for saying this, but I'm unlikely to entrust the analysis of my 

purchase path to an organisation that can't even get its homepage right.
