Hi all, need your help again:rolleyes: I've had this 'problem' for quite a while now, but never worried about it, but perhaps there might be a solution
. When viewing forums, the £ sign is replaced with a question mark (so £80 reads as ?80). Is there a solution: I use Firefox. [for example, two of the sites are pcpro.co.uk and also the Telegraph site). Thanks as always folks

Yes I believe so, that's what mine is set to and the £ sign displays correctly on the sites that you are having problems with.

What browser are you using? Go into a text editor and try and type in the pound sign. Does it show? If not is the question mark shown instead?0
