Dear Readers,

For my AIM (Latest Version)... the Buddylist seems to be right but whenever I type/IM or view profiles the font is in 'ClearType' but I have my computer set at 'Standard' so I was wondering what the problem may be...

Are there any ways to double check to see if I might have some setting not set right?

Thanks.

Woops didn't make it clear enough, I don't want to use 'ClearType' and want things to just be standard.. So this only seems to apply on my AIM Profile/typing but the buddylist itself show sup just fine in Standard.

ClearType is turned off within IE7 - click Tools > Internet options, click the Advanced tab and uncheck the "Use ClearType" box.

Not a problem - I disliked ClearType myself, as well as IE7. Seriously, why add a feature in a browser upgrade that affects the display properties of the operating system?

Haha I agree, I never got into it and I think for IE7, by default it should be Standard and ClearType is an Option rather than Default ><
