    Since I have upgraded from beta3 to beta4 all the fonts seem strange
    some of the letters are only partially appering (especially narrow letters such as "l", or signes like ; or : )
    Also, the 1st and last letter in the chat window is 1/2 cut.

    Any idea?

      Yeah this is a known issue with the new version of the GTK+.

      What I did to fix it was I installed gaim 2.0 b3 with the older GTK+ and then I installed gaim 2.0 b4 on top of it but I told it not to update the GTK+.  Then I deleted the .gtkrc-2.0 file under C:\Documents and Settings\%username% and then the theming worked properly again.  This may or may not work on your machine so I'd advise you to backup your files before attempting something like this.  You may want to just live with it until the new version comes out too.
