Okay, here we go:
It looks like I got all of the ClearType settings turned off. Most were in the registry, but even after that I had to go into Wisbar and turn cleartype off there again.
The easiest thing to do is run the registry editor and click on MyDevice and then Tool->Find. Search for the word "clear" and check the boxes for Keys and Values. Go through each one and change any values of "1" or "0", without the quotes of course. The exception was the first key below, which I simply deleted after finding some info online about it. Keep pressing "Find Next" until you've gotten through all of them. Here are the keys if you want to navigate to them manually instead of using "Find":
1. \HKLM\System\GDI\ClearType (Deleted ClearType entry altogether)
2. \HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\In ternet Settings\ClearTypeText (Set to 0)
3. \HKCU\Software\Lakeridge\WisBarLite\ClearType (Set to 0)
4. \HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Shell\ClearType (Set to 0)
Like I said, even after setting the one for Wisbar in the registry, the Start menu fonts were still ClearType. With all your apps closed, click and hold where the "X" or "Ok" button usually appears in the upper right hand corner. When the Wisbar menu pops up, click Settings. The last checkbox on this screen should be "ClearType fonts", make sure it's unchecked and hit "ok" to exit.
That fixed everything for me. I was able to shrink my font size back down to the default size, I had made the fonts larger before because cleartype had made them difficult to read. Let me know if any of this needs clarification. Disclaimer: be careful with regedit if you don't know what you're doing, as you can hose your OS.
Thanks,
Mike
