CSS "Shaking Stevens" Links?!?

CSS link code issue

Yup - it's true. And wobblier than a plate of jelly in an earthquake - and I don't know why?

The issue that I have here is that after creating some CSS links on the left hand side of the page, they appear to have influenced the other links on the page, (my email link, the link in the main text under email me, and most confusingly the "library" item (DWMX2004) navigation bar at the foot of the page).

What I would like to know is:
1. Why do all those three sets of links now "shrink & shake" when I mouse over them
2. Why have the external links show "red" when hovered over - I can't find it, or recall setting it,
3. Why was the navigation bar at the foot of the page - influenced, even though it's preferences etc had been set when I created it in another sheet (it was a "library item" created in DWMX2004, and then added to all the pages)

Thank you for your patience & expertise. I'll await your replies - as it's confused the hell out of me right now!

I found where the pink is coming from but I can't find the rest yet... I'll keep searching the code.

Near the end of the page:

a:hover {
color: #FF3399;

ff3399 is that pink color.

This could be causing the shrinking problem:

CTRL + F and search for ".style6" in the code, each one of these has "lighter" written into the link css. Not tested though.

Srry bout all the posts.

Ah ha! Solved it - I'd used a:hover defined twice, and also not named one of my style defintions correctly - lordy what a headache that was!

And I'll check out the pink as well, and the .style6 bit as well - thanks SynergyWD
