If I might step in here and cut through the noise ...

There's no mystery here at all. Let me explain what is happening.

You are using a web forwarding service. They are not a DNS mapper, or even a 
real forwarder. Instead, they are loading your website in a Frame set. You can 
see this quite clearly by going to http://isinglive.co.uk/ and viewing the 
source. Since your site is loading in a frame, when you set a bookmark it is 
not a bookmark for the content of the frame, but for the frame container.

The solution to this problem is to not use this forwarding service. It is not 
possible to do what you want while using a frame-based forwarding service.

As to why someone else was able to make bookmarks - that's simply because 
they're not looking at the same URL. Instead of looking at the top-frame 
container, they are looking at the frame content page.

Again, this is no mystery, and is a very common problem - even expected - with 
this type of forwarder.
