Internet Explorer limits searches within a page to the frame you last clicked
on. Without this feature, searches in pages such as those generated by the
javadoc tool (e.g. http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/) are very tiresome:
It is impossible to find anything in the main frame without first having to
cycle through dozens of hits in the overview frame at the left.

duping this to bug 156514, it seems very similar.
