Font problem in WinMail and Internet Explorer

I had some problems installing fonts and cleared out some from the Fonts
folder on my laptop. I've obviously deleted some System or default fonts
and some (but not all) emails are now being displayed with the wrong
font. Any ideas how to fix this? See pics below:

Which font is it -*trying*- to display?...

The font being used in the screenshots is "A&S Black Swan" which is the
first font in my folder. This suggests to me that it could either begin
with 'A' (it's not Arial) or is defaulting to the first font in the
Fonts folder.

Any ideas?

Go to Tools | Options | Read | Fonts in WinMail and you can set the font
there.

You might consider a system restore.

I'd go for a system restore except that I have bad experiences (in XP
of losing a lot of files that way

What about a Vista reinstall? Would that add the fonts back or i
there a way to reinstall -just- IE and WinMail

At the cmd prompt type SFC /scannow and that will scan for system files
corruption and might fix the issue.

Thanks. Are fonts system files though? They're more likely jus
program-specific

Is there no way to do a system repair, rather than rolling back to
save point
