And the answer was...
It may be my choice of fonts that's to blame, although I tried a multitude. There's nothing wrong with the Linux Lite installation, nor with my VBox settings, but thanks for the suggestions.
In my case, the problem was solved by changing Anti-Aliasing Hinting from 'Full' to 'Slight'. That made all fonts perfect, both in terminal and all applications.
When I checked my host (Linux Lite 1.0.6) I the Hinting set to Slight there also. I must have changed it sometime in the past and forgotten.
As to why I need the Hinting set to slight, I've no idea. maybe my monitor? Anyway, this is how I fixed the problem so I will mark this thread as solved. Thanks again for the suggestions.
