User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; rv:1.3a) Gecko/20021212 Mozilla doesn't show the option to download an uninstalled font. It just shows the junk text instead of asking to download that particular font. IE does it. I think it would be really handy for the users if browser would tell user before displaying the page that the font is not installed in user's computer. And give a location to download that font if possible. I am using mozilla since the very start and I was hoping that in coming version you'll take care of this problem. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Just go to the URL mentioned above. Or open any other language webpage other than english. 2. 3. Actual Results: Displays junk data Expected Results: It should tell user before opening the page that the font is not installed in user's computer. Should also provide the location to download and install the font if possible. At times when my computer gets restarted without closing mozilla, my all bookmarks get lost and all the settings get back to default. Why does it happen? And don't you have any solution for this?

Notice the meta tag charset is "charset=x-user-defined", mozilla loads following by the font settings in Preferences.
