In the following URL (www.aimonline.vic.edu.au), we are
finding that under IE6 sp1, question marks are appearing.
If you do a View Source, there are no question marks, so
there should be no reason for them appearing. The page
above is rendered using XML transforms. Under older IE
browsers and Netscape browsers, the page appears fine.
The question mark appears to occur when a space is to be
displayed.
 
I think this is the offending HTML

charset=UTF-16

My FrontPage settings for my locale (Australian English) is

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">

try removing the offending line and also check the language and locale
settings of your authoring software.
 
Yep, I just did a test (copy and paste your source into FP and then changed
the characterset settings). That's the problem.
