when i open a specific website on macOS9/IE5 ( http://www.bootwerk.nl )
the system/finder appearance font turns from normal to extrabold.
see screenshot:it somtimes happens also with other websites.
anyone ever experienced this?

whoah! i'm not the only one! yes that did happen to me a couple of times. it scared the shit outta me. i dunno why and how. rebooting is the only way to get rid of it.

yeah that would perfectly describe my initial reaction to that event. :) or a big shiney gold diamond encrusted WTF! with a halo and angel choir above my head.

which ie version are you using? 5.1.6 or 5.1.7?
- stewart0
i used the 5.1 one, but that version totally fcuked my mac.
now i use 5.0 (2022) again.

Hell - that is strange!
Update to OSX!
- rabattski0
try 5.1.7 though.
oh yeah. update to osx. suuuuuure. lemme see, do i want to have a machine with the speed of a snail or one where i can perfectly work in and still do all my shit i want to do? now that's an easy choice.
anyways, i'll be switching if i'm getting myself a faster mac. still on a G4 400 you know.

stewart - are you using font managment software? maybe its an atm/suitcase issue

hmm, dunno sinbad.
strange that it only occurs when visiting dubious websites like the bootwerk.nl one.
