Greek fonts in LiveMath

The Interactive Mathematics site uses LiveMath throughout so that users can learn by changing variables, animating graphs, solving algebra problems and multiplying matrices, etc.

Go to the highlights of LiveMath in the site.

I generally like the LiveMath plugin, but at times it behaves weirdly. It replaces English words with Greek characters, like this:

livemath greek

It is an intermittent problem and when it happens, it happens in Firefox, IE and Opera. I find if I check again after a few days, it is okay, suggesting it is session-dependent.

I have asked the LiveMath developers about this and they haven’t yet replied…

Have you experienced this?
