Removing Blod text in windows - Spagnum - 10-20-2009
Hi guys!
Let med start off with saying, great forum you got here!
I have a problem with my Windows 7 Ultimate, so i though who better to ask then you guys.
All around my window menus, in my browser, my apps ect. the text have become bold. I'm not sure what caused it, I been playing around the the cleartype function and undefined texttype (dpi), but no luck.
Here's an examples of what It looks like:

TL;DR
Right Click Desktop,
Properties,
Appearance tab
Try right clicking at the desktop and hit properties. Then go to the appearance tab and at the bottom there should be something about font's.
Hope this solves your problem.

I'm pretty sure that you're think of Windows xp there... it don't work that way in Windows 7 though.
Edit: seems like I'm not the only one with this problem:

The took care of the bold text in windows. But I still had problem in firefox. So I reinstalled all of these fonts found here:

Rebooted, and no more bold text for me!
