What do you mean by saying your pixels are square?  The text is blocky
in the UI?  I'm having issues which I think may be similar to others
mentioned in this thread, but not that one.  My issues is that since I
got my widescreen hd and set my res to 1280x720, the letters in the UI
are mostly unreadable (I have pretty good vision and can make them out
if i take the time, my GF has no clue what they say).  I tried setting
the UI to use "big" font and moved that up to 40, but that's really
not doing much.  Is this issue related to yours, or should I address
this some other way?
