    It changed the font to bold on google. On this page ATM everything is in italic. Including the forms links at the topic, literally everything is italic aside from the boards.ie logo in the top left and the "User CP, FAQ" to links up to "Log Out".

    Firefox is my default browser, but after uninstalling Norton (it slowed down my PC BIG time) and then firefox thinking it would reset the problem I found out the same has happened to internet explorer. It appears forum pages are all in italic and pages like youtube and gamefaqs, google are all in bold.

    Does anyone know how to sort this? Captures are below.

    I see you have taken the right steps and have it under control.

    But seriously. Avoid Norton like he was a paedo!

    I'm not sure if this affects IE and firefox, but try this. Go into Control panel and look for your Font settings and restore them to there Dafaults.


    By the way. It may not have been Norton that caused the issue.

    sounds odd as hell, but i dont have any experience with 360. Internet Security hasnt done that to me yet, on 3 computers or in 3 years.
