New Server Problems

Getting weird symbols, instead of accents

I hava a new server and all the websites hosted there have irregularity in displaying accents.

When there's text in the websites, and even on e-mails, that contain á é í ó ú ñ Ñ, they are displayed wrong and it messes up the entire word.

Here are some examples of what is displayed:
Qu頰lacer
tensi��ue escuch頰or
m᳠exposici��e

What can be wrong, and what can I do to fix it?

What do the source files look like?

It seems like your webserver may not be attaching the right Character encoding along with each page. It may be default to something like US-ASCII-7, but it looks like your pages are Unicode.

Look for that, and try forcing your browser to Unicode. See what happens.
