Anyway, it seems that Emacs (under GNU/Linux) is trying to interpret the text in a wrong encoding. You can find out what coding system Emacs is using at the moment with the key sequence "C-h C" -- you might want to compare the answers under Windows and GNU/Linux. Also: what does this file look like if you pass it through "hexdump -C"?
