Strange occurrences

Hi everyone,

Could someone tell me what is causing this?

But in the evening (otherwise known as ‘spare time’) we are transformed (<turning to other presenter> is it now we do a spin and change into superman?)

Forum Administrators and moderators
Where we maintain and update web based forum and related software, help out on various forums where needed and organize a team of volunteers to help others.

Teachers of Malware Removal
We run an anti-malware school with 14 teachers, creating tutorials, student coursework and evaluating students for graduation. All this activity is totally web based.

Security Evangelist –
We do what we can to make anyone who will stand still long enough and listen, aware of the problems facing the consumer on the internet today. We will provide help and advice with Windows setups and security software. We both maintain websites and blogs that provide tutorials, security information and advice.

But this is our unpaid ‘job’, our hobby

I suppose you can compare us to A Dads Army’ (not sure who is Mr Mannering! – Gwynne – stop looking at me!!) helping to make our patch of the internet safe for our children and older fold to travel about without being mugged – or at least, as paramedics that are assisting people to recover after they have been mugged.

Microsoft MVP
We don’t ask for any return or remuneration for what we do, we do it because we are passionate about it and because we feel it is important. It was a pleasant and very welcome surprise however when Microsoft decided to give us the MVP award in the Windows Security field to recognize the work that we do in the on line community.

I have seen this a couple of times before so i know its not related to this particular page. Is it an MWR problem or am i infected somehow??

When the forum software was upgraded to phpBB3 a while ago some characters like you can see appeared here and there in the older posts, it's nothing to worry about.

Thanks very much, but i have just come across this on another site.

Done... Done... Done... Done and done! No chages noted. No real fixes noted.

Do you think its just a similar issue there?

Either that or they are using a different character encoding.

I believe the software conversion caused all 'non-normal' characters to morph (I mean characters like *~'^%" etc)

Correct.

V3 uses a different encoding than v2 used.

The main problems were where quotes or copy data was copied from such as word documents which use opening and closing quotes instead of the standard " and ' codes. Those and things like the copyright sign etc are coded differently in the two versions.

Thanks guys,

I think i understand, but if i don't, its hardly more important than my training.
