Default Can't see highlights. HTML code wrong?

I've got a template on my blog that I really like, I've put a custom header background in and I've just realized the actual body of the posts, when highlighted, looks exactly the same, under closer examination, it goes from black to dark blue.

My blog is here


I've looked through the HTML and couldn't find anything corresponding the colour code of the highlighting (#0A246A).

To view the HTML you should know what to do, just press ctrl+U on firefox, I don't know about Internet Explorer but I know you can save it as a web page and open it with notepad.

Is there any way to make it so that when it's highlighted it is white text with blue background. It's just I don't want to make it seem like I don't want them to copy my content (you know the websites that don't even let you right-click), because some people (like me) use highlighting to follow my reading across the page.

What do you think about the blog anyway? It's only getting around 10 views a day so far, the highest was 22 from reddit. But I've started using different strategies starting today .

Anyway, thanks for reading, and please help, especially if you know allot about HTML.

Yeah it's a problem with my browser, because I looked at it in Internet Explorer and it looked fine. I'm using Firefox by the way. And thanks for the compliments!
