Groovy! thanks a lot Jochem.
I did
<cfcontent type="text/html; charset=utf-8">
which failed miserably and caused the squares anyway (MX is utf-8 by default
I think)

However
<cfcontent type="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
works like a charm.

Joy :D

Use cfcontent to explicitly specify whatever charset you used to use
before the upgrade.
