    Boxes. Nothing you can do about it other than applying a custom
    sylesheet from the "Accessibility" tab.

    > 4. Chrome - boxes

    Boxes initially, but displayed OK when I changed the default font
    setting to use Code2000.

    [Firefox 3.0.5]

    Boxes initially, but displayed OK when I changed the default font
    setting to use Code2000.

    I hate Firefox too. In this case Firefox and Chrome are equal first
    (and I possibly hate Chrome even more than I hate Firefox). IE could
    so easily be the winner if only Microsoft would update the Font
    settings dialog to cover all the Unicode scripts that have been added
    since Unicode 3.0 (like charmap it's stuck in a time warp), fix the
    broken font mappings (Myanmar and Mongolian) and add a default font
    setting.
