Eran,
The netscape.public.mozilla.layout newsgroup and
[EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list are for discussion of the layout
engine in the new open source version of Mozilla (upon which Netscape
6.X is based). Please do not ask questions about Netscape 4.X here.
Yes, that is a bug. Try the following:
View | Character Set | UTF-8
and then
View | Character Set | Set Default Character Set
