Posting all that code is really annoying and against the forum rules. It’s also entirely unnecessary as your style sheet is publicly available for all to see.
Here’s one of the rules you need to override:
.blockcontent-body a:link {
color: #B24801;
text-decoration: none;
}
Here’s another:
.postheadericons a:link {
color: #983D01;
text-decoration: none;
}
And another:
.postfootericons a:link {
color: #983D01;
text-decoration: none;
}
There may be more.
Just use Firebug to find the selectors you need.

Sorry. I changed EVERY instance in the stylesheet that has “a:link” in it to black #000000 and it still shows my links as orange, and visited as gray. Any other ideas? I appreciate anyone’s help.
The first style rule I show above is in this style sheet:

As are at least some of the others.
Are you looking in the right place?
If I remember rightly, w3tc is some sort of site accelerator. Maybe you need to disable this whilst you change your styles and then put it back. I’m wondering if it grabs the styles when it’s installed and then has no mechanism for updating them when you make any changes. The documentation might tell you.
Firebug shows you where the style rules are being read from.

You hit the nail on the head! I deactivated that plugin, changed the styles, and it worked. Thank you SO much. I can’t tell you how long I have spent trying to fix this myself. 🙂
