Internet Explorer not displaying 'Georgia' font

Hello.

This may be a bit of a dumb newbie question but I can't seem to get Internet Explorer display any text in Georgia font ,it always shows it as Times New Roman, Safari and Firefox display fine. Is this something I can change or do I just have to live with it. Here is the style that I have in my global.css stylesheet.

.Basic-Text {
font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", Times, serif;
font-size: 12px
}

Any help at all would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

Could it be a preference setting within IE? Or possibly something like a corrupted font file in the system?
