Yes, I saw this, and fixed it too... I almost remember how. I am not looking
at OO right now (as I do have it installed on my own machine, just some at
work for our developers), but it had something to do with changing the
default UI font. See if you can figure it out. If not, I will let you know
tomorrow when I can look at OO and recall the steps I took. I know that I
found the solution by Googling, so there is some hope there, as well.

Good luck,
Josh
