Today, I had a problem about my font style. When I open web pages I saw that all web pages are viewing ITALIC with both IE6.0 and Firefox 2.2.

I thought that I have a configuration problem. Then I checked IE setting from control panel and I set default fonts.

Internet Properties Window

Then I applied the following settings.

Internet Properties - Fonts Section Window

But appling this setting could not solve my problem, Then I seeked the web but I could not find answer, I espicially checked microsoft.com support pages, but there is not really. Just http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/accessibility/nospectextfont.mspx is smiliar what I have done.

Then I opened a new windows user account, and I had still the same problem about fonts.

After 9 hours passed, I remembered that I had changed the ‘FONTS’ folder, seeing italic fonts. And I found the font type Arial and Times News Roman on the web, and re add it to FONTS folder. Then I saw that everythings is OK, my fonts are normal.

Hope, this will help others having the same problem.
