Open them in a file editor (Notepad or wordpad). If the editor doesn't
understand unicode (like notepad) they'll look like Web pages in Japanes
probably look on your borwsers (lots of block characters mixed in with
everything else). If it does understand unicode try doing a save_as and changing
the filetype. There is also a utility that ships with Java Development Kit
called Native2ascii that will convert unicode file to 8-bit character set files.
