Do they appear in italic on another computer?
...Trying to find out if this is a site problem, or a problem with your IE settings.
If the answer to both questions is "No", or "I don't know", then try this:
Open Internet Explorer, click "Tools" at the top of the IE window, then select Internet Options->General->Fonts
Check to see if an italic font is selected for Web Page font.
Select Times New Roman for Web Page Font, and Courier New for the Plain Text font (I believe these are the as-delivered defaults).
Other than a changed CSS style sheet common to all of your sites, this is the only place I can think of right now where something could "suddenly" go wrong.
HTH. If not, please give more details!

Go to Control Panel¦Fonts, then double click the Arial font that you have in there. Does it show italic?
Suggestion here, although remote, is that the (base) Arial font has been replaced by the Arial italic font.
Couldn't find anything on MS knowledge base about this at all.
