Rob....I haven't heard of that happening since version 2.0 of 
KDE.  I believe it was because a bad Charset got somehow 
accidently specified in the Country & Language section of the 
personalization part of Kcontrol.  Make sure that setting is 
specified as iso8859-1.  If that doesn't work or you can't 
find the setting you can delete the ~/.kde (that's the 
/home/<your account>/.kde) directory and KDE will build all 
new settings files upon restart, but of course you'll lose 
all KDE customizations you've done since your install.
