Answered too quickly and saw your problem the second reading through.  But I
got through all 10 pages and completed with no problems either.  I was using
the Google Chrome browser, if that makes a difference.

Take a look at what is linked in the email.  It's not a valid URL because
they've somehow included ";we'd" from the next sentence.

Try http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/GLJZDDZ and you'll be just fine.
