AOL Users—Help Getting to Web Sites from E-mail
If you use AOL for e-mail and for your Web browser, chances are you won't be able to click on Web address links within Parent emails. To go to Web sites from e-mail, you will need to copy the site address from the e-mail and paste it in the Web address box at the top of the AOL Web browser, then hit "Go."

Parent Web Site Search
The Parent and Family Web site can be searched using the Google.com search engine. You'll find the site search on the left side of most Parent and Family pages, under the navigation buttons. Simply type in your search criteria and hit the search button. Your search will return pages only within the UMDParent and FamilyWeb site.
