I have just installed Seamonkey 2.1 over the last version 2.0.14. In any

text is not clean. It looks like letters are not fully inked as a
printer running out of ink. As I type this it is not evident in this
email, but on the browser pages and bookmarks, the text is not right.
This was not true in the last version. This only has happened since I
upgraded a few minutes ago. Please advise.

If you are on WindowsXP try playing around with the following preferences:
// use cleartype rendering for downloadable fonts (win xp only)
pref("gfx.font_rendering.cleartype.use_for_downloadable_fonts", true);
// use cleartype rendering for all fonts always (win xp only)
pref("gfx.font_rendering.cleartype.always_use_for_content", false);

Found the problem. Downloaded Firefox 5.0 Had the same exact problem
with text in bookmarks and certain sites like slickdeals.net. Updated my
video drivers. No help. Looked on Mozilla Firefox forum for some similar
problems. Found one guy shut off hardware acceleration and fixed a weird
letter spacing problem he had. Shut off hardware acceleration in
Firefox. Problem gone. I expect the same when I reinstall Seamonkey 2.1
or 2.2 when available.
