The version of mozilla you are using uses freetype to render
anti-aliased fonts. In the latest version of mozilla (1.2.1) there is an
option to use xft to render the fonts. The fonts look much better but
the only downside is that you have to recompile mozilla from source
using the "--enable-xft" flag.
