I have a strange problem with Book Designer that i hope someone can shed some light on!

Within the last few weeks, any time I open a file with Book Designer, it will replace all the question marks (?) in the file with the characters "qqquuu". It also replaces some of the periods (but not all) with the new paragraph symbol (¶ ). I don't know why this is happening all of the sudden...don't know what I could have possibly done to cause this. It's happening with every file I open with Book Designer (no matter what type html, rtf, txt).

It only happens on my desktop. When I open the same files with Book Designer on my laptop, they open with out the strange characters.

Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for any suggestions!
