I don't think my default san serif font is displaying correctly, how can I fix this?

Since I've updated to FF 6.0 my default san serif font seems to be displaying as some crazy gothic font that's really hard to read. Here's a screenshot:

In the Prefs under Content & Advanced it's set to Helvetica. I changed it to a few different options an dreloaded to no avail. Any idea how I can fix this?
