Mary,

I find the font size a bit too small and the navigation somewhat confusing 
.  For example, from the home page I choose "Protect Yourself On Line", 
but, when I get to that page, you have a title that says, "Procedures to 
keep others from knowing you have visited the site."  I would expect the 
original choice to be reinforced here; the new title confuses me.  The 
sub-navigation on this page has links to "IE 4 and above for Mac" and 
"Netscape", but I am running IE 6 on Windows, so I don't know what to 
do.  I click on one of these and am routed to a section of the page, but 
there is no heading, so I don't know if I am in the right place.  Also, the 
way the navigation is designed I need to return to the main page to go to 
another section.  In general, the navigation needs to be revamped.

A few more things.  Not sure you can place a copyright date for a future 
year.  There is not enough contrast on the "1000 Friends for Safety" list 
to make it easily read.  Why are there separate links for a snail mail 
newsletter and an email one?  On the domestic violence page, I would put 
some space between the arrows and the text,

I hope these suggestions help.
