That's one of the problems with web design. I ran across a site earlier
today which specified (oh, so helpful!) that the Arial font was "required"
to view the site. At least it didn't want Klingon.

I have my default san-serif font set to be Bitstream Vera (very nice,
BTW). Been meaning to delete Arial from my machine anyway -- just haven't
gotter around to it.

I figure one way to mess with MSIE users would be to detect it, and
specify wingdings as the font.
