Hi, my page is gonna have a ton of links on it with the hover feature so whenever someone puts their mouse pointer on a link it underlines it. My question is does this slow down the load time of the site?

Very simply, no -- the hover instructions are downloaded with the intial page (and use only a few bytes of css) and then the action on screen all takes place locally. Hover is a really useful function and increases usability. For sites I work with, I would never consider not using it.
