            Similar problem here, all chars went italic (bended).
            I didn't mess with my settings or touch anything, all happen after the auto-update.

                  No, Not really, And i guess it's a chrome 41 thing not just Opera, Because i tried other chromium based browsers (SRWare Iron and Google Chrome) and it have the same issue too.

                    In Chrome, you should be able to set the default font. See: https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95416?hl=en

                        Not sure what you guys try to show here, But i mentioned earlier that i tried changing fonts and encoding settings and it didn't work, It's like it has nothing to do with it..

                            Update: I was able to fix this issue with some app/tool called "Windows 8 Font Changer", It changes font for caption, menus, etc.. So i picked a different font which is "Ubuntu" (I think "Calibri" or "Segoe UI" would work too) and now it looks as good as it used to be!
