My helvetica font is all messed up

For some reason, a tonne of websites which use helvetica look disgusting, all of a sudden, including this one (LinusTechTips), Facebook, Humble Bundle etc.

 

Here is what my Humble Bundle looks like. Click here to see it on your machine

and this is what LinusTechTips looks like:

Anyone have any experience with this or have a clue on how to fix it?

It should be defaulting to Arial or whatever your browser's default sans-serif font is if Helvetica is missing. I don't know what browser you're using, but check its options menu to make sure your default fonts are correct.

I'm using Google Chrome, and this all started happening after I tried to install Helvetica as a font for Photoshop.
