Ewww... first time I'm posting with the new green background when I'm typing! lol - Weird!

The reason it does that is the user decided to link to the website with the 'frame' box checked so his navbar will be on the left side.

It's simple to change.. they simply edit the hyperlink and uncheck the frame box.

ok but how does that effect the actual legitimacy of the link, I mean if it counts as a backlink I dont care, but it is just the first time i've encountered it
