Font Problem in Firefox?

If you see the address bar, notice the font colours are different which is also pretty similair to what happens in IE8.

Anyone have a fix for it?

It's for security, and is a very good idea.

Let's say you get asked to enter your PayPal details. The address bar should read something like Paypal.com/something, if it reads Paypal.verify-password.com/something then it's a scam site.

edit: Google Chrome does it too.. but my Firefox 3.5 B4 apparently does not

Is that really what its for. Seems strange though because it didn't happen with another theme I was using and they were both with the same version of Firefox. I just thought it might of been a font issue or something.

It's definitely not default. Either the theme is doing it, or some addon you have installed.
