There are several things you can check in your httpd.conf file:
The TypesConfig directive and DefaultType:
TypesConfig conf/mime.types
DefaultType text/plain
This tells Apache to convert from IBM-1047 to ISO8859-1:
# mod_charset_lite is used to translate request and response
# data from one character set to another (e.g., from EBCDIC
# to ASCII or vice versa).
LoadModule charset_lite_module modules/mod_charset_lite.so
<Location />
CharsetSourceEnc IBM-1047
CharsetDefault ISO8859-1
</Location>
Hope that's helpful.
