Yes, the subtitle color information is in the IFO. It can be fixed with IfoEdit and I think there's even a special tool for this - take a look in the TOOLS section.

The colors can also be fixed using DVDSubEdit, or, more easily in my opinion, in PGCEdit. Open the DVD in PGCEdit, double-click the movie, and change the colors to whatever you like for the outline and main color. If both the outline and main color are the same green, DVDSubEdit is probably the way to go, as you can make the changes and see the results on-the-fly, before making the changes permanent. Here's the guide:

Since DVD subtitles are image or picture based, you can't change the font without first performing an OCR, changing the font, and then converting back.

Check tosee if your film has closed captions. I saw a film like this one you are mentioning & it has CCs instead.
