I remember this topic appearing on one of the lists a short while ago where
someone made a very good point regarding the "color blind" in that if you
choose to identify a link by color alone it may well not be recognised at
all by the color blind. As a result of that message I opted to underline the
links AND change the color ONLY when the mouse passes OVER the link. Its the
best compromise I could come up with since I also don't like seeing a page
littered with underlined text.
