Illustrator loading fonts don't want

[notatechie]

Illustrator CS4 menu is "holding on" to fonts I have closed (turned off) in Fontbook. I have reinstalled my system and CS4 and the list stays as is.

I'm thinking this is contributing to Illustrator locking up and quitting on me. . .

I've called AppleCare and they haven't been of help (3 calls plus a trip to the MacStore to talk to a genius). Have zapped the ram and am still struggling.

Please help!

Which fonts, specifically, are in there? You won't be able to turn of many system-level fonts (Myriad, Helvetica, etc.) no matter how hard you try.

Which fonts, specifically, are persistent?
