Is there a way to have the browsers that do not support @font-face to somehow see the default font of theme css?

Also,
I created my EOT file using this tool: http://www.fontsquirrel.com/fontface/generator... according to this page http://webfonts.info/wiki/index.php?title=%40font-face_browser_support , Explorer only supports EOT created with the WEFT tool
"Embedded OpenType (EOT) created by Microsoft's WEFT tool" Does that mean that Explorer won't work with a standard EOT file?

In addition, the same page says Firefox should be supported but the fonts do not show up on my FF browser (lateste version on Mac platform)

Any input is appreciated!!
Thanks.
