It looks like that Mozilla renders a thick underline with hyperlinks and
underlined text (on large text sizes).
The rest of the browsers (IE & Opera.. and maybe others) do not modify the
thickness of the underline, even if the underlined text is bold.
You can see this behaviour on these pages:
1. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&q=test&btnG=Google+Search
Notice how some links have the thick underline and some don't. This is
because of the text size.
2. http://drudgereport.com/
You can see this problem in the headline (right above the 'Drudge Report'
image). The headline is a bolded hyperlink with a bold (thick) underline.
You should compare the output of those pages on several browsers, and you will
see that the rendering there doesn't affect the underline.
I will attach a test page that shows the scenarios.
P.S. this has been a bug in Mozilla for so long ... I hope it gets fixed!
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
This shows some cases where the thick underline appears.
Compare the output of the page in different browsers and see that most of them
don't have that thick underline.
