I compared your font with my font, it is exactly the same. One of

My Graphics card is GeForce 7800 GTX. I also installed the font on my
XP box, it has an ATI graphics card, the font misbehaves there too. I
turned the acceleration down on both computers, did not make a
difference.
I installed the font on my 98 machine, (NVIDIA Riva 128) it worked
correctly. If I type more than three periods in a row the period
turns into a rectangle symbol. I just think it is a poorly made font.
===============================================
If I type more than three periods I get regular
periods instead of the fancy character.

Since you get the rectangle symbol, and I get
a period...it still seems like a graphics issue
to me. Can you type more that three periods
on your 98 machine?

Bottom line...we'll probably never know the answer.
