Me too!
The quick reply box was often unreadable one line above and below where typing in a small box such as our quick reply and Visitor Message boxes here on the forum.
All lines are nice and crisp as I type this now.
As I scroll the message all words stay focused in the message.
It was my only complaint with IE9 final release.

It didn't takes effect for me after multiple reboot (around three). Combined with this MS hot-fix one: Applications may crash in Windows 7 or in Windows Server 2008 R2
