There can be such cases
1) so called 'older' version of IE without css support with default values -
bgcolor rather not interfere becouse default value of text color was black
2) so called 'older' version of IE without css support with text
color/background set by user to white on black schema - forced bgcolor causes
white letters on white background
3) so called 'newer' version of IE with css support and default values - there
is no specification of color in body neither in css so default values are used
and result is visible as in case 1)
4) so called 'newer' version of IE with css support and default values
overwritten (inversed) to white on black - it cause white text on white
background - I have checked this case in my IE 5
Of course there is a possibility to define own css file but how can I know
this if it is written in documentation as white on white text ?
bgcolor removing could be wrong solution becouse some css entries have color
defined and can interfere with default values of user so my suggestion is to
add text, link, alink and vlink parameters to body
