My guess would be that you use apache which has AddDefaultCharset in
his httpd.conf file
uncomented and set to, say ISO-8859-1.
You can check what headers you server sends with Firefoxes
LiveHTTPHeaders extension
or using online tools like this: http://www.seoconsultants.com/tools/headers.asp
HTTP headers have higher priority than META.
