Where ever a link shows on any website, the background of the link is red and the text is blue. It's difficult to make out the text. How can I change the background to white like it is on all other browsers.

If the background of links is red then that is probably caused by an extension like SEO or SearchStatus that has the option set to highlight noFollow links.
You can check the options of such an extension.

You can click the icon on the Status bar to open the SearchStatus options and un-tick "Highlight NoFollow Links"
See http://www.quirk.biz/searchstatus/

If that didn't work then you need to check for other extensions.
