The effect of "302 Found" server response

Dear Friends, I have 2 questions please:

1-Some sites are linking to my pages like this example:
http://www.totaltutorial.com/show-tu...-the-solution/
For linking to my actual web page:
http://www.tutorialsroom.com/tutoria...s_non_www.html
When I checked the server response for the first link, it shows "302 Found" , so my question is: Could this type of linking affect my ranking? and if this was true, wouldn't it be easy for competitors to use this type of linking to harm you?

2-If you click on the first link, you'll see that my site is displayed in a frame within the other site, is there any way through .htaccess or php to prevent this?

Not any more, but it won't have any positive SE effect either.

2 - No, but there are plenty of "frame busting" javascript solutions about.

302 is the error code for "Moved Temporarily", not found. Why they're using it, I don't know.

As far as the first link goes, I don't think you'd want to bust out of the frame in this case. A site like tutorialsroom can send quite a bit of traffic, but if you bust out of their frame you may lose them as a traffic source.

Just something to think about.

302 is the HTTP/1.0 Status Code for "Moved Temporarily"

for HTTP/1.1
302 is now "Found"
&
307 is "Temporary Redirect"

[offtopic]Next bit not for Adam 'cos he knows this [/offtopic]

Why they use a redirect is to be able to track clicks on the links. And it's a 302 rather than 301 because they don't know any better.

What happens is the page is using PHP's header("new_url") or ASP's response.redirect("new_url") to redirect from a "jump" link, and that will send a 302 response to the useragent.
Coding a 301 as the redirect will take 3 lines of code instead of one.
