That's a non-breaking space character hacked as an xml character entity reference in the html document. The ampersand (&) marks the start and the semicolon marks the end of the reference. 160 is the decimal value of the non-breaking space in the ANSI character set. Obviously they got something wrong in the html syntax and the consequence is that the source is displayed by the browser.
Buggy html code, nothing to do with your screen reader.

Take care

will cause the speech to repeat the number 160 over and over until you
stop it.  This is with both firefox and ie7.  It happens with the
version of eloquence in window-eyes It also happens with dec access
32.    I don't know exactly where the 160 is coming from because when
you stop reading it is a few lines up.
