Is VS2008 creating invalid CSS?

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

I tried to validate the CSS of a visual studio 2008 project, using the CSS validator tool at www.w3csites.com and the page http://view.servehttp.com

The validator says there is a CSS parse error.

Then I pasted in the contents of the style***.css that was created in Visual Studio, and it responds "a:visited Parse Error - [empty string]"
but in my css file it says

a:visited
{
background: transparent;
color: #464295;
font-weight: bold;
text-decoration: none;
border-bottom: 1px #000 solid;
padding-bottom: 2px;
}

Can anyone direct me as to how I can make this css valid, or is the validator the problem?

thanks, JRL
