What sites are you trying to access? Sounds like your fonts might not be able to handle differing character sets. Some sites use Windows 1256 while others users use UTF-8, and so forth. To see if it's just that your font can't handle that encoding scheme, compare some different ones like www.aljazeera.net (win1256) versus Google-Arabic and Google-Persian (utf-8). I have 2 separate fonts in my .fonts directory to handle sites with differing character sets. If one of these sites works while the other doesn't, this could be the problem. If this is the problem, I have you need some cool fonts (eg. nastaliq style -- *really* cool).
