<body bgcolor="#FFFFFF" alink="#555555" vlink="#555555" hlink="#555555" link="#555555">

i'd lean toward CSS:

<style>
a:link { /*a normal link*/
color: #000000;
}
a:visited {/*a visited link*/
color: #FF0000;
}
a:active { /*an active link*/
color: #00FF00;
}
a:hover { /*a link with the mouse over it*/
color: #0000FF;
}
</style>

this way you can mess about with underlines and everything... and discover the freedom of styling with CSS :)...
