I tried to use IDLE on new Ubuntu 7.04 and the window opens with Japanese character set

As this is certainly not the case in other distributions, this is something you should file with the Ubuntu bug tracker.

Changing default character size to 20 removes the issue

What do you mean by "opens with Japanese character set"? Can you provide a screenshot?

Can you figure out what font it is using?

Why do you think it is Japanese? It is fairly unreadable, but it looks like Latin to me. In particular, I can recognize the text "Personal firewall software may warn..."

Please post a legible screenshot.
