I'm really getting bored here.. Since I have used Courier New as standard SciTE font, I think its time to be different. Can Anyone suggest me. What is your preferred font to be used for programming?

Don't say "Times new Roman" cause it doesn't match with my programming style.

I program exclusively in Wingdings on a polarized 3D LCD screen using nothing but a Wiimote. 8)

A common topic, probably already in this forum too.
I tried many fixed width fonts. I still stick to Andale Mono: good distinction of O01lI and so on. Readable and not fuzzy like "modern" fonts (Consolas for example).

Definitely Consolas (although it's not a free font).

Fixedsys or Lucdia Console if I'm working on a machine where Fixedsys isn't installed. The problem is that Fixedsys doesn't scale up too well.
