Steve,
First of all try turning on Anti-Aliased fonts.
Bring up the KDE Control Center. Click LookNFeel.
Click Style. Click the "Use Anti-Aliasing for fonts
and icons" checkbox.
Click Fonts on the left. Go through the listed fonts
replacing them with the fonts you prefer. Note that
you can change the default fonts sizes here too if you
would like to.
Now, bring up Konqueror. Click Settings. Click
Configure Konqueror. In the new window that pops up
click File Manager. Click Appearance. Make the
selections you prefer for your default fonts in this
area.
Click Konqueror Browing on the left. Click
Appearance. Again, make your fonts selections. Note
that you can also mandate a minimum fonts size here.
This may come in handy.
As a tip, I changed my Fixed Font to be "Nimbus Sans
L". I personally found that to be much better than
the default.
I don't know how to clean up Netscape. And your error
may be causing you other issues. However, this is
what I did and my fonts now look very nice (minus
Netscape).
