Just a complete guess...

In xl2003, I'd check the font in the:
tools|Options|general tab
I'd make sure it was something I recognized (Arial, 10 is my normal).

In xl2007, I'm sure that setting is hidden under the:
Office button|Excel Options|popular category (????)

Write down any existing settings -- just in case you have to revert to them.
