Hello Arneish and John.
You can change the default fonts used in websites by going into Tools > Options > Content and selecting "Advanced" in the fonts field. I do not recommend changing the size of the fonts, or ticking the box to override website defined fonts, but it's ultimately up to you.
If you're talking about fonts used somewhere else (like in the interface), that's another issue. But I hope that's not it.
You can enable ClearType system wide for all programs to make other programs like Firefox use it.
Vista: Control Panel > Personalization > Window Color and Appearance > Effects: "Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts"
XP: Control Panel > Display > Appearance > Effects: "Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts"

@Morbus, I want my text font to look like the fonts in IE 8. I need a way to figure out the default font used in IE8 and then use the same font in firefox. Help again please ;)
I haven't used internet explorer in years, Arneish, and I don't have it in my computer... Sorry.
It's probably Arial or something.
1. Click Start, click Control Panel, click Appearance and Themes, and then click Display. 2. On the Appearance tab, click Effects. 3. Click to select the Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts check box, and then click ClearType in the list.
Same as Morbus suggested. Do this and the font in Firefox will instantly change as desired.
Its now very easy on the eyes, smooth and looks very good as well.
You're so right~
