Comment:

 Does not work for me with the latest TBB. On three different test systems
 (Linux and two different Windows versions) there are three different sets
 of fonts.

 How to reproduce:
 Enable javascript. Go to ip-check.info start the test once with TBB on
 Linux and once with TBB on Windows.

 Result:
 Windows 1: about 180 fonts
 Windows 2: about 40 fonts
 Linux: about 20 fonts
 (they can not only see the number, but the exact list)

 Expected result:
 Windows 1 fonts = Windows 2 fonts = Linux fonts

 Suggested solution:
 Reply with only 3 fonts.
 monospace, serif, times new roman

 Who done implemented already:
 I am not a big fan of JonDo, but in this case they done it better. Go to
 https://anonymous-proxy-servers.net/en/jondofox.html and download JonDoFox
 for free. You can test it without proxy. Right click on JondoButton (like
 TorButton) and choose no proxy. Then go to ip-check.info - only 3 fonts.
 Perhaps look at their source code for a tip.
