Illegible Font

[WhyMe]

Today my fonts have been altered in certain areas.

This is one of them:

I tried to change the fonts in control panel --> display properties --> appearances, but the drop down menu only shows one font, and it changes nothing.

Outlook Express and some other applications have fonts liking that too.

My language setting is Traditional Chinese, and my computer had no problem displaying them. Today, about 90% of Chinese texts are illegible (mojibake) (eg. in emails, MS Word etc)

My computer specs:
Windows XP
Pentium 4, 1GB ram.
Graphic card: Nvidia 7600 GT (about 2 months old).

I have attempted to fix it with different methods:

1) Re-installing graphic driver
2) System Restore

But non fixed the problem.

Before this incident I have had downloaded Windows Live Mail and Live Messenger.

Windows also updated the following:
CAPICOM Security Update for CAPICOM (KB931906)

Windows XP Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 2.0 (KB928365)

Office 2002/XP Office XP Service Pack 3

Try to uninstall latest updates, but do it one-by-one, restarting your computer every time, and see if it'll fix anything.

Thanks for replying, but deleting them didn't fix anything.

Your post wasn't any more helpful, you know. 

WhyMe:  Have you tried reinstalling the font files?
