Honestly? I always go back to the core MS fonts (Arial, Courier New, Times New Roman, etc...). I even use the Fixedsys typeface when coding. They're usable, familiar, and most importantly, look good at small sizes. The downside is that an unusual renderings (e.g. Font size 17), they don't look great, but it's a small price to pay.
