An addendum ([EMAIL PROTECTED] is me, too ... sorry) - I grabbed 
Netscape 6.01 and got the same type of font problems ... very strange. 
Maybe this has something to do with the font system in general - I'm 
running Mandrake 8.0 which I believe has XFree86-4.0.3.  Checking out 
the same pages in Netscape 6.01 in Win98 shows no sign of the problem. 
How do I track down a problem in the font subsystem?

Regards,
Brice Ruth
