The one that works has this as the opening html tag:
<html xmlns:mso="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office"
xmlns:msdt="uuid:C2F41010-65B3-11d1-A29F-00AA00C14882">

The one that doesn't has only this: <html>

The angeltowns.com server is adding
Content-Type: text/html; charset=ISO-8859-1
to the HTTP headers.

This is over-riding the UTF-8 charset defined in the page, causing the page
to show Windows symbols, rather than Farsi characters.

You could try changing the HTML tag to
<html lang="fa"> to see if that makes a difference (I doubt that it will).

The alternatives are to ask the host to remove the charset header, or to
write the page using Unicode characters.

FYI, Firefox on Windows, and Mozilla 1.6 on Linux display the same way.
 
Opening HTML tag are different. One is calling up the XML code for
MS-Office, the other is plain HTML
