There is no padding top Mark. All browsers (apart from Safari) have the
default margin-top (1em) of the list showing. IE7- makes default
vertical margins disappear [1] since the list is within a hasLayout
container (the orange box is a float). So when you gave the style,
ul.left_menu_txt {
list-style: none;
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
}
you zeroed out the margin-top of the list. Safari I think is mangling
the HTML causing the margin space to disappear and IE8 shows an unusual
drop of the link 'Standard' under it's own bullet.

Mangled HTML:
<li><a href="placeholder"
class="left_menu_indent"><b>All-in-ones</b></strong></li>
