Right click on the Windows desktop and select "Properties" (last menu
entry) from the popup menu. On the "Appearance" tab (3rd of 4 tabs),
click the "Effects..." button (top button in lower right corner). The
second option in the dialog that appears contains a tickbox to enable
antialiasing, and a dropdown selection for the method to use. I have
mine set to "Cleartype", I'm not sure if the problem also appears with
"Standard" anti-aliasing. Emacs may need to be restarted after changing
this setting.

That would be one more bug then. The old font selection code used to
explicitly filter out fonts beginning with @ for that reason.
