Loaded Firefox to see if Hotmail would work better, and it does. However, now the font appears lighter and rougher, as if the resolution has changed. Explorer's font was darker and clearer, much easier on the eyeballs.

Tried RFQ#241 but that was not the issue.

You can enable ClearType system wide for all programs to make other programs like Firefox use it.

XP: Control Panel > Display > Appearance > Effects: "Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts"

See http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306527 - HOW TO: Use ClearType to Enhance Screen Fonts in Windows XP
