Default Icons not showing up on my computer
Im not sure what happened to my computer or my internet browser but all the sudden the little icons, widgets, wingdings or whatever you call them don't show up on my screen they just show a stupid square with numbers in it.

Example:


Those squares are supposed to be stars... Anyone know how I can fix this?

That's probably an encoding problem. Do you know how to switch your browser to UTF-8? If not, which browser are you using?

I don't know how to do that.. I use Firefox most of the time, but it shows up the same way with Explorer too.

I've just checked, and in FF it seems that the option is under Firefox -> Web Developer -> Character Encoding. That should be set to Unicode (UTF-8). Im afraid I've no idea how you could check that setting for IE, since I don't know which version of IE you're using, and in any case I don't actually have IE.
