Standard in unicode, but not necessarily processed correctly by all applications. It's called a byte-order mark(BOM). To get rid of it, construct an instance of UTF8Encoding passing false to the constructor. IIRC, the static instance in the Encoding::UTF8 property includes the BOM, so you can't use it. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com).
