We try to use Arial where ever possible.  It is a clean, easy to read font
face that scales well.  We do use other fonts, such as verdana, to give some
pages a different 'feel', such as news articles.  I think that the easier
the page is to read, the more likely the visitor will actually read what you
posted.  Sure it has to have enough eye candy to attract them, but it's the
content that you want the to actually grab.
