This sort of thing is usually caused either by UTF-8 artifacts in
non-utf8 aware software, or by a bad $TERM or $LANG value. Matt is
correct to assume UTF-8, and I still do. Could you run two commands
from the shell, and describe how you're connecting (gnome-terminal,
putty, rxvt etc)?
run:
echo $TERM
echo $LANG
