I just got a 22-inch widescreen lcd. It looks fine most of the time but sometimes fonts on certain windows are blurry. Anyone know how to fix this?

do you have the display set to the native resolution of the monitor? That can make a big difference.

It seems that my monitor has a max resolution of 1680x1050 but when I set it to that, everything is super small. But when I set it to 1280x960, the resolution looks much better.

set it to max resolution and

a) get glasses

or

b) set your font size bigger

Otherwise you will be running in a sub-optimal scaling mode that your lcd reluctantly supports.

Try running the 'clear type tuner' (do a google).
