The problem is that the hyperlinks in the mails i receive appear white and
as a result when the background is white i cannot see them.

I have made numerous attempts to fix the problem but it persists.
I have tried to "play" with the theme settings in word 2003(as it is my
editor for the messages) but nothing changed.

I have tried to fix the issue through outlook 2003 various menus and option
but again i have managed nothing.

Give me a little help please because i really have problem in reading my
mails.

In Control panel, internet options (or if IE is open, its tools, Internet
options) what colors are selected in General tab, Colors button? Look at
the Accessibility options (also on General tab) - what options are enabled?

I saw the things you told me. They did not solve the issue.
And to be more specific. In the internet options>general.colors the 2 boxes
are unchecked(use hover color & windows color) from the colors there the only
white is the background. The colors that have to do with links are
not.Visited is purple and unvisited is blue.

I checked(and unchecked) the above boxes i mention and the problem persists.
A proof is that even the link beneath "How to ignore preset colors" is in
white and the hyperlinks in the mails are still white.

I am wondering if i have to reboot the pc for the changes to take effect or
the mails must be SENT AGAIN and the mails(which i have all ready received)
with the hyperlinks in white will stay that no matter what i do.

Regarding the accesibility option i checked and unchecked all the options
and again nothing changed either way in the hyperlinks color of my mails.

What is going on here?
