1. change this...
<frameset cols=120,* border=0> noresize=yes>
to this...
<frameset cols="120,*" border="0" noresize="yes">

2. delete these two parts...
scrolling=no

3. in your links, you must add the TARGET that matches where you want the link to open into. example...

<a href="aboutme.htm" target="MAIN">About me</a>

you copied the #1 part wrong.
you have this in your coding...
<frameset cols="120,* "border="0"> noresize="yes">
it must be this...
<frameset cols="120,*" border="0" noresize="yes">

you should also go through all your coding and put "quotes" around the values as seen in my examples to you. it does not hurt, but may help.
