great!!! This was actually not that difficult! I had tried indeed this encoding, but had got confused between the encoding and fileEncoding arguments!

Thanks a lot to yo uMike, as well as to Paul and Anne, really nice!

I had similar encoding problems a little while ago with text exported from windows software (written in Germany - I'm in the US). If you're still looking for an R solution you might try:

read.csv("http://dl.dropbox.com/u/6113358/prob.csv";, fileEncoding="ISO_8859-2")

which works on my system (or at least reads the file and the top looks reasonable, missing values in the last column?)
