    Hi all, Even though I have the font set to times new roman in the preferences, fonts on some pages appear as comic sans in safari (even though I know this isn't the default font on the site, gmail for exmple). Does anyone know how to change this or what the problem could be?

    Hah! I had this a while back. Unfortunately, I didn't bother trying to figure out the issue and just reinstalled OS X :D.

    It happen to me either. (Firefox)

    I went to application & open font manager & select web > Disable the font(Actually I don't know the font name ,so i delete the font that looks same to web browser active font)

    finally I restart the browser
