Windows XP has no font that I could select in Internet Explorer
as "Plain text font" for "Language script: Thai".
But I can indeed choose this Courier MonoThai.

Now I have the follwing settings in Internet Explorer 7:

Language script: Thai

Webpage font: Plain text font:
Tahoma Courier MonoThai

I view http://www.user.uni-hannover.de/nhtcapri/temp-2.html
with Internet Explorer 7.
Strangely, the <pre> and <tt> paragraphs are displayed in Tahoma,
only the {font-family: monospace} paragraph is displayed in
Courier MonoThai.

When I manually override the encoding Windows-874 and
choose Unicode (UTF-8), then the whole page is displayed
in Courier MonoThai.
