You can enable ClearType, used by IE as default. You can enable ClearType system wide for all programs to make other programs like Firefox use it.

Vista: Control Panel > Personalization > Window Color and Appearance > Effects: "Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts" XP: Control Panel > Display > Appearance > Effects: "Use the following method to smooth edges of screen fonts"
