Fixed font size (px) does not allow IE users to resize the rather small

text. - Use %, 100% for body, smaller for legalese.
Images do not have alt tags.
No hover - I can only see that I am over the link by waiting for the
cursor to change.
The design is not flexible - at a window under 800 there is a horizontal
scroll bar (users with an 800 window width and history open for example).

The site does look good and seems to convey your message.

Odd mix of deprecated markup and modern markup...

link href="sencesa_css/main.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css"

....good, but then why not take care of all the following
kinds of things in that sheet instead of mixing markup and
display:

table align="center" cellpadding="0"
cellspacing="0" height="500"
width="750"

(Fixed widths are a bad idea anyway.)

You can simplify everyone's job
by validating before posting.
It will help you to clean errors
before others have to.

Appearance --
- The design is clean and to the point. It's pleasant to read. The text
does not waste my time with verbal handwaving.
- I notice the background of the PhotoStory image on the left does not
match the background. Is that intentional? Was it supposed to be
transparent instead?
- As mentioned earlier the links are an Easter Egg Hunt. It leaves me
wondering if there are any other links on the page. There is no obvious
way to know.
- Some spacing between paragraphs would help the reading a bit.
- You might mention the program only runs on MS Windows OS. And which
version(s).

Coding --
- You use a quote old style of coding: exclusive use of tables for layout,
"tag soup" for style, fixed width design.
- HTML: is invalid. http://validator.w3.org/ refuses to validate it at all
because the character encoding is unspecified and some of the characters
are not valid UTF-8, the assumed encoding.
http://www.htmlhelp.com/tools/validator/ finds a number of errors, some of
them significant.
- CSS: Font size is specified in pixels which do not scale in IE; use %
instead. The chosen size is too small for many people. Verdana is a poor
choice is a preferred font. It has a large x-height that makes it more
readable than other fonts in small sizes. Those who do not have Verdana
are therefore being punished with tiny text they cannot resize.
