To the casual observer it would appear that my page was in some way
related to the banner ad /info above. Is this a case of copyright
infringement or plagiarism?

This sort of framing has been the subject of at least a couple of lawsuits in the United States. Some lawyers seem to think that it may constitute copyright or trademark infringement.

For background on the illegal issues involved, see the article "Web Site Framing: Trademark and Copyright Issues," on GigaLaw.com at http://www.gigalaw.com/articles/kubiszyn-2000-04-p1.html .
