default style sheets

I've had a request
>I know there is a way of changing the colour of web pages, so that they
appear in a more readable colour. How do you do this? Is there a
way of making the layout less cluttered too?

so:

Is there a repository for default style sheets?
ie ones that suit particular needs, and are usable by novices?

I tried one from here:
http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/sample.html
>Developers are encouraged to use it as a default style sheet in their
implementations.

It created the worst crash I have had in many years. Ctrl-alt-del was
disabled, and on resetting the same (explorer) error was generated
repeatedly.
had to reboot in safe mode and remove, not a great advertisement.
