I wish I knew what's going on. Could it be part of the normal phpBB installation?

First, since the parent frame's url never changes, it makes it more difficult to bookmark individual pages.
Second, it also causes problems when reading the forum on an iPhone because the iPhone's browser doesn't cache many pages. This means if you're reading a page and then go back a page, the browser often has to reload the entire previous page instead of pulling it from the browser's cache. Then because all the pages are loaded inside a frame tag, the browser reloads http://www.texaschlforum.com instead of the previous page that you really wanted (the previous page in a thread or the previous page in a forum listing).
There's a workaround if you just go to http://www.texasshooting.com/TexasCHL_Forum/index.php directly and bypass the page with the frame in it, but in my opinion it would be a good idea just to get rid of the whole frame page entirely. If your only concern is to make the root of the forum show up as http://www.texaschlforum.com then a server-side redirect would probably work better.
