In internet explorer go to:
Tools/internet options/general tab/Fonts..Should be set to Times New Roman.

Hmmm,
You have it set to the correct font but it still shows as italic?
What did you do when the font change occurred?
Have you cleaned your temp files?

You have two options:

1. How do I change the system font (This one requires editing the registry)

2. or through the desktop as suggested THIS thread:

When u right click on the Desktop> Properties>Appearance tab, there u will see an ADVANCE tab in the lower right corner, click on it, it will give a window where u can set or change all the defualt settings for all teh default fonts which XP uses for different things like Title Bar, Message Boxes, close and minimize buttons, etc. etc.
So just go there and change the settings according to ur wish.

Hope this helps
