The answer (and comments that help to figure it out!) is the in the CSS file, SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css. I will show the style rules that govern hover states and drop-down widths:
@charset "UTF-8";
/* SpryMenuBarHorizontal.css - version 0.6 - Spry Pre-Release 1.6.1 */
/* Copyright (c) 2006. Adobe Systems Incorporated. All rights reserved. */
/********************************************************************* **********

...
/* Menu item containers, position children relative to this container and are a fixed width */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal li
{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style-type: none;
font-size: 100%;
position: relative;
text-align: left;
cursor: pointer;
width: 8em;
float: left;
}
/* Submenus should appear below their parent (top: 0) with a higher z-index, but they are initially off the left side of the screen (-1000em) */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul
{
margin: 0;
padding: 0;
list-style-type: none;
font-size: 100%;
z-index: 1020;
cursor: default;
width: 8.2em;
position: absolute;
left: -1000em;
}
...
/* Menu item containers are same fixed width as parent */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal ul li
{
width: 8.2em;
}
...
/********************************************************************* **********

********************************************************************* **********/
...
/* Menu items that have mouse over or focus have a blue background and white text */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a:hover, ul.MenuBarHorizontal a:focus
{
background-color: #33C;
color: #FFF;
}
/* Menu items that are open with submenus are set to MenuBarItemHover with a blue background and white text */
ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemHover, ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarItemSubmenuHover, ul.MenuBarHorizontal a.MenuBarSubmenuVisible
{
background-color: #33C;
color: #FFF;
}
And there it is, highlighted in red. Don't get rid of the other styles...I just omitted them so it would be clear which ones you need to change to achieve your 'look.'
Check back if this is unclear.
