I believe that is from reading escaped iso-8859-1 as utf8

In order to have reliable results I've had to use apache2 with 
addDefaultCharset utf8 directive.

The difference goes between win2k and winXP, or between win2k without or 
with office-xp (or later I assume), the latter uses utf8 and the former 
iso-8859-1 unless forced to use something else.

The above directive is the only way I have found so far...
