I use NT 4 with IE 5.5 at home and I cannot get the Unicode characters to
show on it either. I can only get them to work when I use NT 4 with IE
6(Beta) which is what I use at work. So I advise that you try to hold off on
the upgrade to IE 5, since it doesn't seem to work either.  I have a win95
machine at home with IE 4 let me play with it a bit (maybe tonight) and see
if I can get the fonts to show right.
In Christ,
David Trotz
