Yahoo.com doesn't show font.
If I click "Allow pages to choose their own fonts..." then yahoo.com is just a bunch of boxes... Every other website looks fine with page-author fonts allowed. Just not yahoo (which makes it hard with yahoo mail).

This can be a problem with the font that is used to display the text.
You can use this extension to see which fonts are used for text that is selected (right-click: "Show fonts in selection").
You can do a font test to see if you can identify corrupted font(s).
You can try different default fonts and temporarily disable website fonts to test the selected default font.

Hello,
Try disabling graphics hardware acceleration. Since this feature was added to Firefox, it has gradually improved, but there still are a few glitches.
You might need to restart Firefox in order for this to take effect, so save all work first (e.g., mail you are composing, online documents you're editing, etc.).
Then perform these steps:
- Click the orange Firefox button at the top left, then select the "Options" button, or, if there is no Firefox button at the top, go to Tools > Options.
- In the Firefox options window click the Advanced tab, then select "General".
- In the settings list, you should find the Use hardware acceleration when available checkbox. Uncheck this checkbox.
- Now, restart Firefox and see if the problems persist.
Additionally, please check for updates for your graphics driver by following the steps mentioned in the following Knowledge base articles:

Thank you.
Thanks for the thought! I disabled graphics hardware acceleration and the problem persists. It also is an issue when I restarted Firefox in safe mode. I have included a screen shot so you can see the problem.
Other ideas?

Looks like I don't have Helvetica installed... so hopefully the problem has been isolated. I am having some problem installing it (on Ubuntu 13.04) but will keep on it. Thanks!
