In that case I'm afraid that all I can say is "Sorry, you need someone with a better understanding of things than me". 

What quaker suggested is exactly what I did with my own forum when I set it up after prodding around the code and finding that bit, and it worked for me, but beyond that I'm lost.

It's in the stylesheet for whichever style you are using - /style/Lithium.css, /style/Oxygen.css or whatever.  If you offer your users a choice of styles, you'd need to alter each one individually.

Just scroll down a little to the section:
/* 3. LINKS */
and in 3.2, as quaker says, change
{TEXT-DECORATION: underline}
to
{TEXT-DECORATION: none}

As well as Firefox, which you've done...
OK in Konqueror 3.4.2 (using Mandriva Linux)
OK in Opera 9.10 (x11; Linux i686; U; en)

Cheers, Smartys, just encountered the same problem myself.

I love this forum - I don't exactly post a lot, but I'm always popping in, reading and (I hope) learning - guessed that if I did a search here there'd be an answer, what some of you guys don't know isn't worth knowing!

Thank you for that, Paul. smile

Not integrated into a website, but the slight problem I had with mine is that none of my members are youngsters with good eyesight and big monitors - the youngest will be 40 very shortly, I'm 55, and most of them are over 60.  Generally they find that using "Normal" text size (or "Medium" in IE)  is OK for the average web page but nearly all forums (not just PunBB) are too small for comfort.

So, to save them going up a size in their browser just for my forum, I had fished around (a lot of trial and error here - I'm new at this stuff!), found that first bit and changed the default size to 12px.   Result - everybody happy except for a few people who were using IE.

I hadn't spotted the second bit though (and probably wouldn't have cottoned on if I had) but by changing that from 68.75% to 75%, this has resulted in smiles from the IE users too.

Complete newbie to php here, found PunBB (brilliant!) after giving up with a couple of better-known forums that I didn't like, and after successfully doing a few other minor mods, not having that checkbox ticked by default was the only moan that I had from my users, so this was just what I was looking for too.

Reasons for *not* doing this are appreciated, but if you have a small group like mine (less than a dozen and all reasonably intelligent) who all agree that this is what they prefer as the default, and server load is not a problem, the answer to 
"Which file is that for?"
is
post.php

SerwoliX's message is over a year old, but I've done this on mine (1.2.12) and it's working as intended, no problems. smile
