We really need more information about your setup, but
assuming you are using KDE (the default) you can try
the following:
In KDE Control Center click LookNFeel->Style. Click
the checkbox to enable Anti-aliasing. Click Font (on
the left again). Here you can set up the fonts that
you prefer.
In Konqueror click Settings->Configure Konqueror.
Click the Appearance tab and select the font
configuration you prefer. Click Konqueror Web
Browsing (on the left) and click its Appearance tab.
Here you can select a minimum font size (very handy)
and also set up fonts you want Konqueror to use.
In Netscape, there is a Fonts selection under settings
or properties or whatever. Click the second Western
ISO and click Set as default. This is still ugly, but
(for me) much easier to read. I rarely use netscape,
though. I use Konqueror.
This should greatly improve the fonts overall. I've
noticed that keing into web-based text boxes has
slowed down, though, and that can be damned annoying.
I blame that on anti-aliasing. If you need to enter a
lot of information into webpages, you might
investigate this further.
