Help! Font issue.
Numbers are all weird and unreadable. I cannot tell what number is what, if I copy and paste on the of the numbers into a search bar I can see what the number is. But they all seem to be this 'squiggly' line looking stuff. I have tried restarting my browser, running in safe-mode, reverted fonts to default, unmodified fonts in the about:config, Nothing has worked. Any help or link to a fix would be much appreciated.

I fixed it doing this. 1. Close all applications. (Important!) 2. Start Terminal (located in the Utilities folder; press Command-Shift-U to open this folder). 3. Type sudo atsutil databases -remove and press Return.
Type your password at the prompt (no characters will echo back to the screen).
4. When the process is complete, type exit to end your command line session, choose File > Quit to exit Terminal, then restart your Macintosh.

Wow, I wonder what character set that is?
Could you start by making sure pages are allowed to use their chosen font instead of a default font set in Firefox? So over here:
- Mac: "3-bar" menu button (or Firefox menu) > Preferences
- Windows: "3-bar" menu button (or Tools menu) > Options
- Linux: "3-bar" menu button (or Edit menu) > Preferences
- Any system: type or paste about:preferences into the address bar and press Enter/Return to load it
In the search box at the top of the page, type font and Firefox should filter to the "Fonts & Colors" section. Click the "Advanced" button.
Then make sure the box is check for "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of your selections above":
Any difference?
The Google results page uses Arial, at least on Windows. If problems persist, we can describe how to figure out what font your Firefox is using on the page.

That didn't fix it, It seemed that it was an issue happening with my Macbook Pro. Seems CCleaner messed somethings up, but I got it solved. Thank you for trying to help!
Because this only seems to be happening with numbers, I assume that the numbers are in another language (i.e. not Latin).
You can do a Google search or try Google Translate for these characters to see what language this is about.
