Hello everyone!

I stumbled accross an error which really causes my some headache as it is
hard to determine where it is caused.
I encountered two PC-systems, one with linux and one with Windows 2K, which
both report the same error on the
client-side which looks like the following which is taken from the
VenueClient.log of the windows system.

I don't know why the client can't decode the character in the XML-message.
The VenueServer is fine, as other clients can connect.
Maybe someone can point me to the right direction. I assume it to be a
package version problem under Linux, but have now clue what it is under
windows. We tested with a laptop as exchange for the Win2K computer and it
worked then.

Any help would be great.
