And if I check any of the menu shit in firefox there is these black boxes after lots of options. ( right now I am typing in firefox with this italics font shown in the SS, very lame)

I went to: desktop > properties > appearance > advanced , and changed it all back to MS Sans Serif (that is the default classic font right?). But still this shit remains.



In case you are wondering, I uninstalled left for dead and it gave these 'tahoma/arial font failed to uninstall' retry, ignore, abort. I clicked abort and this shit happened. wtf?
..and then I would, ya know, check em'. (Aka SpoR)

I agree! Parry Hotter, Pokemon, and Pep Rally are gay fonts.

get a copy of arial.ttf from a friend's computer in c:\windows\fonts
delete your copy and replace it.

edit: i can't remember if you have to restart or not though, i think you would

I'd say just reinstall your fonts, or something of the sort. I have to agree with JeeJee.

P.S. That is a tennis player in your wallpaper, no?
