Can you please take a snapshot of your screen to understand the problem better.

If its just one site you are experiencing the problem with then that would be because the site is not encoded in UTF-8 or Windows-1256, in that case you cant do anything unless the site developers fix this. If you have the problem with all the sites, then as zaid said please provide a screenshot or visit the Language Kit Manuals site from apple.

Cheers.

Do you have Office 2004?
The picture isn't clear but I think you mean that the letters are separate.
Is this correct?

If this is the case, erase the Arial and Times New Roman from your user's font folder.
There is a duplicate in the root folder, so don't worry.

Just like fagpyre wrote, you need to track Arial, and Times New Roman that were installed along with MS Office and trash them.
