Viewing Fonts On Web Pages

I switched to a different isp and all the sudden, the fonts on the webpages I visited before are appearing as boxes or different letters. Is there anyway I can fix this?

What kind of websites are these? Are they in different languages? And what ISP did you switch to?

In Internet Explorer, go to View>Encoding, click on Auto Select, see if that solves the problem.

If not, go back into View>Encoding and, leaving Auto Select enabled, click on "Western European (Windows)" and see if that does the trick.
