I notice that, when I visit that site, the packlock has a yellow
background instead of a green background.  I believe that means the
security of the site is incomplete.

However, the only information transmitted is a ZIP code.  Unless you are
the only person or organization in that ZIP code and you are not using a
unique browser, there is little or no risk in visiting that site.  The
only problem is the annoyance of the message.  You might send an E-mail
message to the Webmaster at <[email protected]> about this.
