On eBay, listing text with item descriptions in bold or italics show as gibberish. This is not a problem on IE9 or earlier Firefox versions.

That is usually a problem with one of the fonts or a problem with (a setting in) the graphics display driver.

Which graphics display do you have?

Are there any problems listed at the bottom section of the Help > Troubleshooting Information page?

I have NVIDIA GeForce 6150 LE. I looked at it and it is updated, so I don't know what else to do about it? This issue with eBay first appeared when I updated to Firefox 4, so I went back and reinstalled 3.6.... I tried Firefox 6, and now the same problem. I would use IE9 but it keeps crashing! Is my only answer FF3.6? Thanks for your help!
