Ssprengel, I want to thank you especially for thinking of this.
I've known for a long time that Adobe downloads their adobe-clean font via typekit, and I've not really liked that Adobe font very much. Without it, their pages are programmed to default to Helvetica Neue or Arial (I think I only have the latter).
And I've long used the hosts file to block stuff I don't want accessed (mine's over 15,000 lines long).
I just never thought to put the two concepts together to force these web pages to fall back to Arial. Now, in addition to solving this italics BS, the pages are more readable than ever! Thank you!!!
