Can someone tell me why all I type, be it on Word, Notepad, aol or IE is italicized?

The computer is a Pavilion, p6720f.  6 GB of ram, processor AMD Phenom II 840 T.  Microsoft Office Student version.  Type in aol is in italics and nothing that I'll change it.  Type in the task bar is in italics.  I've tried everything I know to change, including but not limited to: change the screen resolution, default fonts on all programs, crushing.  In word, normal ARIAL is not available in regular only in bold.  I can change the italics, but not in normal mode.  I downloaded a resume on this computer and another computer, everything was in italics.  Help!  I'm out of ideas.  Thanks in advance for any help.

I found some discussions of the forum on this subject-, it seems that the problem is that the default Arial font disappears sometimes, who knows why. These two sons, that both have solutions that have worked for other people having the same problem:

Good luck!
