I think Kelpie raises some strong points, which you shouldn't be so quick to dismiss. Off-hand responses such as "thats what back buttons are for on the browser ?" undermine your supposed expertise in the field of web usability by showing that you don't really appreciate how people, perhaps stupidly, actually use the internet.
I, for one, quite like the overwhelming greenness of it - it doesn't in any way bother me, though I often rue the lack of stronger colour schemes on'tinternet. Perhaps, if it were me, I might add in a slight gradient near the top, to distinguish the buttons a bit more (ie. have a darkness, under the buttons, gradiating toward your green at the middle of the main body sections, or something).
I'm curious to know more about the iconographic graphics you've used, as they're quite shiny - did you do them in-house, or buy/get them in from somewhere on the web?
In sum - I think it's quite impressive, though I agree that the some of the dynamic animation is a bit pointless and showy, I think you need to resolve the internal navigation on the FAQ section and that you should limit scaling to the horizontal axis.
