    Something weird happened on my Firefox while viewing Wikipedia articles. All the letters and symbols are in bold. It was 'normal' yesterday. What could have caused this change? Checking the same article in IE, instead of becoming bold, everything became italicized instead. :confused: Here are screenshots of the same article on Wikipedia, on Firefox and IE.

    No. After multiple system restores, I have narrowed the problem to when I uninstalled Audiosurf. Apparently, when I uninstalled it, something behind the scenes broke, and now Wikipedia and Firefox's Google homepage are in bold.

    Now, the problem is how to uninstall Audiosurf without this problem happening. :mad:
