Looks like uninstalling KB3013455 fixed Courier so hoping the same for Arial... Happy hunting...Wow...who would think that a malicious web page could whack your fonts..... Makes you want a MAC...– rboblenzCommented Feb 15, 2015 at 18:43

It won't whack your fonts: now that you have KB3013455 uninstalled, it might take control of your computer. Except that if few enough users are affected, maybe no cracker out there will bother writing an exploit. Hopefully.– LSerniCommented Feb 15, 2015 at 18:56

My system rebooted itself at 3:20 am and reinstalled KB3013455 and whacked my fonts again...so I had to un-install it yet again. Windows is not letting me block the KB3013455. AAAhhhh....Maybe Microsoft should consider fixing this bug before issuing the update... Seems like it should be whacking EVERYONE's Courier New and Arial.... (BTW: the FREE "Dark Courier.TTF" has a shorter line height than vanilla Courier New, so it does not play well with my VB6 lists that are looking for 34 visible rows and getting 37...) so not very good for a direct replacement unfortunately– rboblenzCommented Feb 16, 2015 at 9:49

I am on Vista Home Premium SP2. I was assuming that McAfee was managing the updates (and not Windows Update)...– rboblenzCommented Feb 16, 2015 at 9:53

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. windows-7), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
