Why do empty boxes show up instead of text on many web pages?
Several months ago we started having trouble on our Mac OS X desktop computer with Firefox. On many web pages, including the Firefox Support home page, I see empty boxes instead of text. The boxes do not have any letters in them. If I copy and paste the boxes into MS Word it translates them into text, but not on the web page.

Thanks! I validated/removed fonts using fontbook and downloaded FontNuke. So far all pages I've visited look correct! Thanks, again!
