Try something like this:

<head>
   <title>Whatever</title>
   <style type="text/css">
     <!--
       body { font-family: Arial, sans-serif; }
       * { font-family: Arial, sans-serif; }
     -->
   </style>
</head>

You may have to tweak it a little -- Netscape, in particular, has a
tendency to inherit poorly in tables. So you might want to make it:

      body, td, p { font-family: Arial, sans-serif; }
