I have a 17" screen, 1024x768. After updating Mozilla Firefox, I look at this page http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/3.6.12/whatsnew/ .

Firefox Extension: NoScript.

1)Before allowing scripts: fonts look clean and readable. http://i852.photobucket.com/albums/ab81/ffilou6/ff3612a.png ;

2)After allowing scripts: fonts look a bit ugly, bold and kind of blurry, not precise and straight, aliased http://i852.photobucket.com/albums/ab81/ffilou6/ff3612b.png .

I hope in the next Firefox updating page, fonts will look better :-) .
