Missing topic titles or text on forums or web pages

I am unable to see the topic titles on some web sites or forums. I believe everything is up to date as far as plugins, java, etc. I do see an underline when mousing over where the title should be but no text. Clicking on the underline brings up the topic and can see the title but not on the indexed page. This happens in all browsers not just in FF so could be something on my system but not sure what. This started after doing a clean install of Vista up to SP2. Any help you can provide is greatly appreciated. I am using Avast Pro for antivirus if it helps.

  • "Clear the Cache": Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Storage (Cache): "Clear Now"
  • "Remove the Cookies" from sites that cause problems: Tools > Options > Privacy > Cookies: "Show Cookies"

Start Firefox in Diagnose Firefox issues using Troubleshoot Mode to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).

  • Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.

That did not fix the problem. I think though I might have it narrowed down a bit. It appears it may be a Font issue but not sure which one to fix. If I go to Tools > Options > Content > Fonts/Advanced and uncheck let sites choose own fonts instead of the defaults, I can see the topic titles. Anyway to determine which Font is causing the problem? Thanks for the help.

Can you post two comparison screenshots to see where it happens/

The site http://rappelz-forum.gpotato.com/ uses a lot of font in various places, so it is hard to diagnose. 

body {font-family: Verdana, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;}

h1, h2, h3, h1 a, h2 a, h3 a {font-family: "Trebuchet MS",georgia,Verdana,Sans-serif;}

.content {font-family: "Lucida Grande", "Trebuchet MS", Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;}

Here is the screenshots. The only thing I am changing is the checkbox to allow sites to use there own fonts.
