This all started when Facebook changed the font size in their webpage. So I adjusted my font by using ctrl +/- to enlarge the font. Since then when I check my email in Yahoo the read and unread emails appear the same. Almost like a bold font for everything. I can't distinguish between them while using Firefox... I uninstalled Firefox, I cleared cookies and cache and the issue still remains.
