When I load a page with this css the fonts are messed up:

<!--
body,td,a,p,.h{font-family:arial,sans-serif}
body{font-size: small;color: #333;margin: 0 20px 2em 20px;line-height: 140%;background: #fff url(/images/firefox/grgrad.gif) repeat-x}
a:link{color:#039}
a:visited{color:#666}
a:hover{color:#333}
a:active{color:#000}
img,table{border:0}
#sf{width:100%}
#frame{width:564px; margin:0 auto}
-->

Other sites show this behavior, but this was the simplest

Did you somehow set your default font to Impact? Or did all your fonts but Impact somehow get deleted?

This is now invalid... arial was messed up on my system.
