I have added a comment to bug 812695
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=812695 that I am
seeing this problem on SeaMonkey 2.16 also after Microsoft Update
pushed KB2670838 to my laptop yesterday. I have changed
gfx.content.azure.enabled from true to false as a workaround to
correct the problem until it is corrected.
Can you explain what is happening, so I can decide if I want to
install that update?
It seems it's a 50/50 chance now that MS updates will break something
on my system. Thanks...

Some of the text characters have dots missing and are malformed, also
some reports of images having problems too, but I didn't see that
problem. It seems to be only certain sized text, for me it was mostly
the text in the tab titles and the menus. I could still read them,
but it was hard enough on the eyes I didn't want to keep using it. If
you follow the link to the bug I posted, right under the bug
description are some attachments with screen shots of the problem
(they are from Foxfire, but the problem is the same on SeaMonkey).
Also it looks like most of the people having the problem (including
me) have ATI video cards or chipsets so you may not see the problem.
Also changing gfx.content.azure.enabled from true to false in
about:config corrected the problem for me and I haven't seen any ill
effects from that setting so I am going to leave the Microsoft
KB2670838 patch on and run with gfx.content.azure.enabled false until
they get the problem fixed.
