The issue will be one of character encoding rather than having stray characters visible in your source code. Which charset are you declaring (if any) for the page(s)? Also, what tools did you use to produce the page?

charset=iso-8859-1, the original pages are generated ASP.NET on the fly from a product database. Those .aspx pages are not the problem but we generate static .html pages for all products and when they are written the symbol gets introduced.
