weird-looking page display
Hello, I'm using Bootcamp with Windows 7. Paypal login page and several other pages look weird like this with the fonts not showing. Is there any way to solve this?
Thank you.

Wow, thank you very much, Fred. I had to use the Safe Mode option since the first method didn't work.
Thanks again and it's very appreciated.
Cheers.

Yes, it's working in normal mode. My Chrome is still problematic with the same thing happening with the Firefox, despite the clearing of cookies, cache and switching off of the hardware acceleration.
Well, at least the Firefox is now working normally :)
Cheers.
Glad to help. Safe Surfing.
