Thanks Stacey, - that did the trick.

I now have two sets of styles in the sheet:
A:LINK.WHITE, A:VISITED.WHITE, A:ACTIVE.WHITE {text-decoration: none; color: 
White;}

For the header section which is on a dark background, and the following for 
the rest of the page:

A:LINK, A:VISITED, A:ACTIVE {text-decoration: none; color: #336699;}

And it works a treat - well on my IE5 at least.  I'll be testing it on other 
browsers in due course.

Thanks for your help.

Cheers,
