the font is showing up incorrectly

For some reason, I am getting a strange font on some sites, possibly using particular fonts. I've tried troubleshooting it but can't figure it out.

Here's the font that I'm talking about.

It's showing up in my Wordpress Admin Dashboard, LewisHowes.com, MortgageMarketingInsiders.com, Mozilla.com and many other sites.

You may have a problem with the Georgia font. You can try to reinstall that font.

Use this test to see if the Georgia font is causing it.
Copy & Paste the code in the location bar and press Enter:

data:text/html,
Georgia<br><font face="Georgia" size="25">abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyzABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ</font><br>

I tested it and noticed that the font did appear incorrect. When I went to my font folder, the Georgia font was missing.

I Downloaded the Font From SourceForge.com And Installed it but still have the same problem.

Here's a screenshot.

You may still have another font installed that Firefox identifies as Georgia.

Did you try to find out which font Firefox is using?

I try it and it keeps crashing my browser session. I tried it in Chrome and it gave me a list of over 2200 fonts I have. What in particular am I looking for in that list?

Thanks for your help. Do you have any other suggestions?
