On my mac mini (10.6, safari 4), random websites (the same ones every time) always shows random letters in place of normal text. I went to the same websites on my other mac (10.6, safari 4) and same thing happened. I tried on my mac running (10.3 safari 3) and it showed normal text. I cannot figure out what is wrong with my safari.
thanks for any help

99% of the time, these text issues are caused by either bad fonts or bad font caches. The Font Book utility that comes with Mac OS X can help you find corrupted fonts, and fixing font caches can be easily done with OnyX, a free tool.
