Read this "essential guide to LaTeX2e usage"
http://mirror.ctan.org/info/l2tabu/english/l2tabuen.pdf

which lists among "the most severe mistakes in using LaTeX2e":

Section 1.8: "Should I use \sloppy?" (the answer is: "Frankly speaking, the 
\sloppy switch should not be used at all.")

They suggest this preamble code, which works very well for me:

\tolerance 1414
\hbadness 1414
\emergencystretch 1.5em
\hfuzz 0.3pt
\widowpenalty=10000
\vfuzz \hfuzz
\raggedbottom
