I have several Windows XP Pro machines running FireFox, but one, an old IBM Thinkpad, shows all the text as weird characters that don't look like any known language. The options/tools show that it is set for US English. The images and the rest of the HTML stuff are fine, just the text. I have tried updates, but that doesn't change the presentation. Every other application works fine, including IE. I guess my next step is uninstalling and downloading FireFox from scratch, but I would entertain other suggestions.
