For anyone who uses Firefox 3 and the add-on Forecastfox...?

Do you also have trouble with certain characters that appear in the status bar like in this example: http://forums.ensolis.com/viewtopic.php?f=4&t=184
The characters are unaffected if you switch around the position of the add-on.

This has really been bugging me the past few weeks:cursing:

Sorry I can't be of assistance. I've been using Forecast Fox since early FF2 and have never had any issues like the one you describe. It doesn't seem to be a major problem though. If it's really annoying you then I suppose try reinstalling the add-on and if that doesn't work, FF itself.

Apple, are you running the latest version of firefox 3 with this add-on? Also, are you running XP or vista?

Using latest Firefox (3.0.1) with Forecast Fox 0.9.7.7 and running XP SP2.

ok, I did a lot more troubleshooting and the reason why this happens is due to the style theme being on "Classic." You have to switch over to "Windows XP style" under Windows and Buttons in order for the font to appear correctly. No wonder why so many people don't see it...
