Default Pound Sign character

£ is not working properly in posts prior to the upgrade. When posted in a new topic it is OK.

Weird

Apache is didling with the charset. If I change it then all the new ones will break and the old ones will be fixed.

Regarding the fonts, I just checked our forums and it seems that something is going on with the encoding. Although I change it to UTF-8, once I click on another S2KI page the encoding changes again. Even if I turn-off the Auto-Select-Encoding the same thing happens. I have many users from the greek community reporting the same thing.
