Not in the DNS server. The problem was that the browser was looking for http://www.%c9%99%c9%9b.net/ rather than http://www.ÉÉ.net/, in other words exactly the same problem as Otto found with Netscape 6.2. The clipboard contained http://www.%c9%99%c9%9b.net/, as both Unicode text and basic plain text. There was obviously a problem in how Mozilla copied this address to the clipboard.
Thats odd because if I copy http://www.ÉÉ.net/ from Mozilla's
navigation bar to the clipboard and paste it into MS Word or Windows Notepad it remains as http://www.ÉÉ.net/ and if I look in Windows XP Clipbook viewer it is also correct - so Mozilla, at least the version I'm using, seems to be copying to the clipboard OK.
I *do* get problems if I paste or type this URL into the IE 6 navigation bar. The text of the URL displays OK in the navigation bar but, almost immediatly, Internet Explorer just comes up with "Cannot find server The page cannt be displayed. The page you are looking for is currently unavailable" etc. - mind you I don't have the Verisign add-in installed.

Subsequent to writing the above I've installed Mozilla 1.7.3 en-GB build
and atill have no problem going to http://www.ÉÉ.net/ or copying the URL to the clipboard. Exactly the same results as with v1.7.
