I think you went to even more work than needed to open a web site. After one experience a few years ago, I concluded anything that takes 10 seconds or longer is too much work for the task...

Knowing that the board member they were sending to open the site was the sort who considered computers paperweights, we decided to reduce the 'opening' to one click. We used the boss's mac to avoid explaining which mouse button to use. Then I set the 'home' page to blank, loaded the blank page, and set the home page back to the site and maneuvered the mouse so the pointer appeared over the home button.

He still managed to tap the mouse a few times until my boss mercifully pushed his finger on to the button. It was worth all my seconds of work as the confusion on his face was replaced with carefully crafted photo-op joy at the marvels of technology.
