The problem may be caused by that "Symbol Character Set" bit being
set. I do run Win95 but don't have Internet Explorer, so I can't
actually check.

That flag bit is meant for fonts with arbitrary non-Unicode glyphs,
such as WingDings and WebDings. I suggest clearing it for 
FreeMono.ttf, FreeSans.ttf, and FreeSerif.ttf. The italic, bold, and
other variants are OK already.
