Is it just me or did the fonts on the site get turned to all bold?

Why are you typing in Japanese?

That's just you.

In Firefox:
Content -> fonts & colors: Advanced -> TICK ON "allow pages to choose their own fonts."

Actually you would want that TICKED would you not? Unticking means you want the browser to use its own fonts. Unless they changed that option in 3.5 and it's worded the opposite as 3.0.

Oh and that's under Tools > Options

ああ、私の悪い状態。

Pekka, that's already checked. Although I'm about to try setting up a custom stylesheet to get normal font weight back... any way possible!

Very frustrating.. 8-(

Might get some clues in the Google search below, although it's weird just to have them show up here....

Thanks Mark... That didn't help, but it was interesting reading, none the less.

It did get me to thinking about something that had happened a couple of days ago.. I had a font that auto-activated when I opened a logo .AI file - and the font still did not display correctly, even though it was activated. This got me thinking, so I nuked the OS font caches, restarted and voilà! Everything is back to normal. For some reason, the fonts used on vbulletin sites specify Geneva as a backup font, which must have become corrupted. Cleaning the font cache fixed this and my problem.

Thanks everyone for the help, I appreciate it!

Thanks for looking into this, Todd. This solution might be useful to anyone else who might have the same issue.
