I HAVE heard IE have a problem with displaying random international characters as "strange symbols". I don't recall that a solution was discovered.
I recommend switching to Mozilla Browser . I hear iCab is very small and fast. I may start to use it on my 2400c Is it only IE that has the trouble. Can you use keycaps to see your umlaute ? hope all is in order soon >Noone else to turn to but you... sob... >Now that I have your attention: I installed IE 5.1.4 on my DT G3 and on my >2400.
