It appears as though certain fonts aren't showing up correctly for me.

For instance, two of my websites, have the text in the header as using Copperplate Gothic Light, yet they're showing up as what looks like Times New Roman.

Now, this isn't a problem with my website coding itself, as both sites show up with CGL on Chrome and IE. Plus, it seems even if I change to an even more standard font like Verdana, it just shows up Times New Roman (unless I'm looking on Chrome or IE, in which case it naturally shows up Verdana).

What's going on?
