What website is this?

Is it just that website or does all text appear like this?

yeah that's twitter. but it happens on a few sites, speedtest.net being another and the other day i was updating either java or flash and it happened on there.

Try disabling hardware acceleration to see if that makes a difference.

Options > Advanced > Untick: Use hardware acceleration when available > Restart Firefox

If none of those work, make sure you're not zoomed in/out of the page at all (view is set to 100%) and then try a new FF profile: http://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/...aging+profiles

Alternatively, switch to a more stable browser

He had the problem in Chrome as well

Did he fix it? I just remembered I had this sort of problem when I installed Helvetica or something from a Mac on my Windows PC.

Yes it's gone, I tried everything i could think of, reset all the fonts as well nothing sorted it. don't know what happened but I formatted last night. @Martin; wouldn't close this thread though.
