That kind of thing tends to be controlled by the application. (Or if
it uses a toolkit, possibly that).
I think for netscape, there's an xresources setting for its fonts.
Look in netscape.ad in your netscape directory (probably
/usr/lib/netscape, /usr/local/netscape/lib, or /usr/local/lib/netscape)
Gaim sounds like it's gtk, so you can change it in a gtk theme. If you
have a gtk theme, look at .gtkrc, it'll probably have a font line in
there, which you can change.
If you don't, I think you can just put something like:
--< cut here >--
style "default"
{
font = "-*-lucida-medium-r-normal-*-*-120-*-*-p-*-iso8859-1"
}
class "GtkWidget" style "default"
--< cut here >--
in .gtkrc, and it'll use the defaults for the other fields. If that
doesn't work, look for something like "creating a gtkrc theme" at
gtk.themes.org
