In TLB settings >> Fonts, what is the "default font" of "menu item fonts"? The Windows 7 control panel says that Windows 7's default font is Segoe UI, but when I type "Cobian Backup 9" in Segoe UI font, letters don't look the same as they do in the TLB menu. Attached are pictures of both. Notice there are serifs on the tips of the letters in Segoe UI, but not in the letters on the words on the TLB menu. (It's especially noticeable on the lower case c's.)

btw, I do see that there are grey serifs on the TLB menu capital c's, but notice that 1) they're grey and not black like on the Segoe UI c's, but more importantly, 2) the corners on the Segoe UI's capital c's are noticeably squared off, but on the TLB menu they're not squared, they're fully rounded.

Another difference is on the lower case "a" where at the end of the horizontal line at the top of the letter. In Segoe UI, that line goes down just before it ends, but in the TLB menu is is totally horizontal where it ends.

Also the lower case e's are different. (See the attached file SegoeUI2.jpg)

So since the letters look different then they're different fonts, right? So what font is TLB using in the menu?
