I've been using Firefox for years. Today, fonts are not loading on excite.com and google. Has something changed?

We have seen cases where a box with all '?' or all 'A' is displayed that might be related to using a Last Resort font that displays all the glyphs with one same character.

You can try to set this pref to 1 on the about:config page.

  • security.sandbox.content.level = 1

You can open the about:config page via the location/address bar. You can accept the warning and click "I accept the risk!" to continue.
