Blocks List View place holder 'dots'

I am sorry if this is a weird question, but I am unable to crack it and have turned to this forum as a last resort.

When I use a block as a List view I get the elements (say blog titles) as a List with a 'back dot' as a place holder similar to what it is there in these http://drupal.org/handbooks (For eg. About Drupal or Getting started has the list starting with a black dot for each element).

Try what (with Firebug) I am unable to pin point where this is coming from(which CSS or tpl file).I am planning to have something different other this but I am not able to locate what I should change to remove this. I am completely lost.

Thanks
