I asked about this on Reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/firefox/comments/1o26ar/let_sites_use_their_own_fonts_but_make_exceptions/

Here's a summary: I used custom fonts instead of letting each website display their own. This led to sites like Github not displaying some icons. I enabled the option to let sites use their own fonts, and the icons in Github are fixed, but I have another problem:

That is most certainly NOT the website's custom font. It's HelveticaNeue-LightExt for some reason.Reddit suggested I use a script with Greasemonkey, but I like to keep my addons at the necessary minimum, and I know there's something weird going on here. If I use another profile, such as with Tor, the sites display just fine. In fact the first time I tested it with Tor, I restarted my regular Aurora session and the websites displayed proper fonts. A few minutes later, and for no apparent reason, they were back to HelveticaNeue.

Basically, I want to let sites display their custom fonts properly, without the need of an add on, and without losing my current profile.

I know how to enable/disable addons, but I didn't think this would fix it. Well what do you know, it did. I re-enabled them one by one and the problem isn't back, so I don't know what caused it, but it's fixed.

Thanks!
