Can you put the website url up here, so that I can test it myself.

Unfortunately, it is an internet banking website(www.klikbca.com).
If I happen to encounter a form where the font doesn't look right, I'll submit 
the issue again.
I guess this one can be closed in order to keep the issues list current.

Thanks for the prompt response.

I've got a new evidence.
You can test it at http://www.optikmelawai.com/products/eyewear/

At the drop down menu (as pictured) you can see the inconsistency of the font 
display.

Okay, so I think the problem is present in Firefox.
I'm trying the site now in Chrome and encounter no problem just like you posted 
(and still exist in FF).

Firefox version 19..
I haven't checked if anyone already mentioned, but IE also stubbornly renders 
with its own engine (now I'm using IE10). Is there anyway to disable that?
