what is wrong with font blurring recently ???
some websites look just awful on last firefox. see screenshots on IE and Firefox. The difference is clear to see. I hope you guys can solve this with next update .... ??? & also hope that you have abandoned cleartype fonts for good ..... or ? (this was the main reason why I switched to firefox from IE)

ok, please try updating your graphics driver, or in case this doesn't solve the issue or there is no new version available at the moment, disable hardware acceleration in the firefox menu ≡ > options > advanced > general (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).
