** Description changed:
On web pages that doesn't specify their encoding, Firefox has begun
making bad guesses where it made previously made better ones.
For example, when viewing
<http://www.angelfire.com/nt2/tidsskrift/stickint.html>, Firefox uses
- UTF-8, which results in a lot of "�". Manually switching to
- ISO-8859-1makes the page look fine.
