There are no easy fixes that I know of. All the standard values for scrolling or overflow are either on or off.
However, you are the creater of that content. If you create the IFrame content so that it "fits" inside the IFrame. However the width of the IFrame includes the vertical scrollbar. So, if you create a 500px wide IFrame you will need to create the content to be about 470px wide. Or something along those lines.

Do u mean make the content so that you dont have top scroll down.. Ive made the width so that there is no need to have a horizontal scroll bar but some browsers put it in...

Change your IFRame to this
<iframe src="home.htm" name="home" width="539" margin="20px" height="398" align="middle" scrolling="yes" frameborder="0"></iframe>
And then for your "content" pages that go in the IFrame, change the width to "520"
