When browsing the web I occasionally see little boxes with four numbers in them instead of letters or anything sensible. This might have something to do with UTF-8 or something. Anyway it seems to be related to foreign language support somehow. The same damn boxes sometimes appear in other places too (Drag and drop from xffm filemanager etc.). Annoying!!! Anyone have any suggestions how to get rid of them?
