to answer my own question, it's described here - http://about.digg.com/diggbar - and seems to be something that's completely optional (you can enter a url like http://digg.com/http://google.com that displays, in this case, google in a frame with a "bar" at the top).

given all that i still don't understand a comment on this page about disabling it - it seems to be something you have to enable not disable...

It's not opt-in... At some point, every single outgoing article link you'd click on would come up in a frame with the Digg bar on top.

When it first launched it was opt-out. Due to everybody hating it, they changed it to opt-in.
