Under KDE 3.5.1, Firefox uses its own font choice for the menubars text instead of the KDE style definitions. Every other application running under KDE, like Openoffice 2.0.1, seems to comply with KDE stile rules. Any attempt I've made to change the firefox menubars font by means of KDE controls failed.

Because not everyone, like myself, knows enough about GTK and its configuration files, I'd suggest this link: http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Same_look_for_QT,_GTK_2_and_GTK_1_apps with a special attention to the last paragraph "GTK QT Theme".
