Try change your skin1/customer/categories.tpl like this:

{* $Id: categories.tpl,v 1.1.2.34 2008/05/26 07:35:16 max Exp $ *}
{capture name=menu}
{if $active_modules.Fancy_Categories ne ""}
{include file="modules/Fancy_Categories/categories.tpl"}
{assign var="fc_cellpadding" value="0"}
{else}
<table cellpadding="4" cellspacing="1">
{if $current_category.parentid ne 0}{assign var="curcat" value=$current_category.parentid}{/if}
{if $curcat eq 0 }{assign var="curcat" value=$current_category.categoryid}{/if}
{foreach from=$categories item=c}
<tr>
    <td  valign="top"><img src="{$ImagesDir}/category_bullet.gif" width="6" height="13" alt="" /></td>
    <td><a href="home.php?cat={$c.categoryid}" class="VertMenuItems"><font class="CategoriesList">{$c.category}</font></a></td>
</tr>
{if $altcategories and $c.categoryid eq $curcat}
<tr><td colspan="2"><table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0">
{foreach from=$altcategories item=v}
<tr>
    <td valign="top" style="padding-left:15px;"><img src="{$ImagesDir}/category_bullet.gif" width="10" height="13" alt="" /></td>
    <td><a href="home.php?cat={$v.categoryid}" class="VertMenuItems"><font class="CategoriesList"  style="font-size:10px;">{$v.category}</font></a></td>
</tr>
{/foreach}
</table>
{/if}
{/foreach}
</table>
{/if}
{/capture}
{ include file="menu.tpl" dingbats="dingbats_categorie.gif" menu_title=$lng.lbl_categories menu_content=$smarty.capture.menu cellpadding=$fc_cellpadding}

and add lines

PHP Code:

if ($current_category['parentid']>0){
 $_where = "parentid='$current_category[parentid]'";
} else {
 $_where = "parentid='$current_category[categoryid]'";
}
$altcategories = func_query("SELECT * FROM $sql_tbl[categories] WHERE $_where ORDER BY $sql_tbl[categories].order_by, category");
$smarty->assign("altcategories", $altcategories); 


in include/categories.php right before

PHP Code:

if (!empty($subcategories))
    $smarty->assign("subcategories", $subcategories);

$smarty->assign("cat", $cat); 


I have tested this on 4.1.11 and found no problem
