Bookmarking a Frames site on IE 5.5

When I "Save as Favorites" a frames site on IE 5.5, the Favorites link actually saves a different URL. So when I attempt to go to the page through the favorites link, I do not end up on the parent frame, but on one of the sub-pages.

Does anyone have suggestions on:
1. How to make IE 5.5 "Save as Favorites" work properly
2. Or How to create a "Save as Favorites" link on the site that will work properly.

By the way, Netscape 4.7 "bookmarking" does not have this problem.

Thanks for any help.

For frames, you need to do this: right-click the page that you would want to save, then from the pop-up list select "open in new window" or "save window as", when that happens, save to favorites then, you'll get that page saved and not the menu frame... I have not failed; I merely found 100,000 different ways of not succeding...
