Help in font family:

Expand Post »
i have a web page which i set the body with the following external styles.
css Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
  1. .body{
  2. background-image:url(bg_image.jpg);
  3. background-repeat: repeat;
  4. font-size: 12px;
  5. font-family: Arial, Verdana, Georgia, Times New Roman, Sans-Serif;
  6. }
  7.  
  8. .body a:link{color:#0000FF; text-decoration:none;}
  9. .body a:visited{color:#0000FF; text-decoration:none;}
  10. .body a:hover{background-color:none;color:none; text-decoration:underline;}

The problem is only in fonts.All fonts in my page appears to be BOLDED WHILE I DIDN`T SET LIKE THAT.
I HAVE TRIED TO CHECK WHAT IS THE PROBLEM WITHOUT SUCCESS.
I will appreciate if someone will tell me what to do,or i should do to force all the font to be UNBOLDED.
thankx.
