Question Firefox fonts


I'm having a heck of a time with the firefox fonts. Bld 2.0.0.10. My resolution is 1280X1024. The fonts are all over the place on web pages. too small too large. Could someone give me the the fonts they're using just for a starting point. Edit>Prefences>Content>Advanced, I need font name and font size. And in Personal Settings>Appearance and Themes>Fonts> Window Titles. And maybe "General" too.
When I try and adjust them I chage the font name and size but it just won't come together right, too small, cuts off lines, font type same thing.
I set the res to 1185 to 864(something like that) and the problem remained the same,

Thanks. Those settings got me real close. I use a LCD also. I have messed around with the control center settings as well,"Personal Fonts" and "GTK Fonts". What are you using for those settings? I can't remember what they were in the beginning. On edit, I reset everything back to default and tweaked from there.

Thanks for the response.
