So I made a simplified version of my opening page (removed counters and
other impedimenta) and removed the meta tags. All I got was Chinese and
gobbledegook! So I uploaded it to:

Did it look anything like this?

It could be that your testing server is sending UTF-16 (or some other
incorrect encoding) for some strange reason. The easiest way to find
out is by using Mozilla or Firefox, go to Tools>Page Info... and look at
the MIME type and encoding information listed in the dialog.
