today, I have opened up firefox and some sites I am building (using georgia as font) look odd. Firefox is replacing all instances with a terrible scribble hand drawn font. This is only happening on this machine and only in firefox. Safari on this same machine is fine. Firefox on my other laptop is fine too. It's not only my sites either, the entore firefox site (including this page) is in the same awful hard to read font. I thought it might be alocal font issue but it has only just started happening and the fonts work fine in safari.

Please help!!
