When I try to read websites in tamil language example: http://ta.wikipedia.org , i see only boxes.

I use HTC Desire HD using Android 2.2

Android natively doesnt support tamil & dont have tamil font in it. I have rooted my phone and have tamil fonts copied.

I should be able to set default font to tamil font (example Lohit-tamil which I have in the system) to view tamil web pages.
