The http://www.mozilla.com/plugincheck/ site uses the Georgia font: font-family=georgia,serif

Use this test to see if the Georgia font is causing it (Copy & Paste the code in the location bar and press Enter):

data:text/html,
Georgia<br><font face="Georgia" size="25">abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ</font>


If the font is corrupted then you will have to reinstall or remove that font.
