You may be using a font that does not match your keyboard. You can check out your fonts by typing "charmap" in Start/Run--taskbar start button.

Tltrude, that has nothing to do with it. It's because of string filtering MoHAA uses and the 'facfont-20' font. When I try to write Polish characters, like ąśćżłę (I wonder what will this look like in your browser
) they also show up as ?s.

Well I don't see the problem. I see the % sign and the "ąśćżłę". If you turn off smiles in your post, you will also see :).

I wondered how this "ąśćżłę" would be displayed.

Yeah, lizard, I know what you mean. Try typing an URL with http, like
http://www.slackware.org and it won't show up too. I'd say it's the game's string filtering.
