I've tried many different fonts in the browser, to no avail. And as an aside, the *DEFAULT* font in a browser should display very well. It doesn't; not in IE, not in FF.
some fonts look very ugly in all browsers if you have switched off "font smoothing". eg. on windows this is the case if you have reduced or turned off all ui effects and disabled the "cleartype" subpixel rendering.
