Recently, (I want to say in version 35 and forward) my font on any webpages opened in Firefox looks horrible! Its unreadable in some cases, and rendering incorrectly in others. The letters are fuzzy, or seem to be missing parts. I've tried zooming in and out, no change. I've tried changing font settings, turning off hardware acceleration, all the solutions I could find on my own. I've also upgraded to the latest version.

When I open the same web pages in IE, they look fine. Text also looks fine in other applications such as Word, etc., so the issue must be Firefox unfortunately.

I've attempted a screenshot, but its hard to see unfortunately. Not a good upload quality. The bolded letters seem to have extra pixels giving them a fuzzy look. The regular font letters seem to be missing pixels, such as the horizontal part of a lower case "e" making it hard to tell what the letter is.

Hopefully someone knows what I'm talking about.

Any ideas? I love using FF and detest IE, but this is really hard on my eyes. :(

That did it! Since IE was working a Microsoft update didn't even occur to me.

Thank you so much! :)
