help with link styles Options

[GlassButrFly]

I am trying to use this skin: Sweet and Simple xanga skin on my xanga, but when you put your mouse over any of the links, the links get bigger, with spaces in between the letters, and then links that you've already been too get crossed out. Is there any way to change this? I've looked through the code and can't find where the link styles are edited, so if anyone could help, that'd be great. :)

Sure. This is the code that goes in the header HTML:
