you are correct Padraic, I was able to do it in customer/category.tpl, I just removed the <font> and made a <div> - Code:
{else}
{if $config.General.root_categories eq "Y"}
{foreach from=$categories item=c}
<div class="CategoriesList">
<a href="home.php?cat={$c.categoryid}" class="VertMenuItems">{$c.category}</a></div><br />
{/foreach}
{else} {foreach from=$subcategories item=c key=catid}
<font class="CategoriesList"><a href="home.php?cat={$catid}" class="VertMenuItems">{$c.category}</a></font><br />
{/foreach}
