1. Open a new notepad and type: bush had the facts. (no dot)
2. Save the document (no special name needed).
3. Open it in Notepad.
Now you'll see the text is changed to a peculiar form. This is a known software glitch in MS Notepad.
It cloud be any word has 4-3-3-5 characters. (Such as "Palm say the truth" or "John was the idiot")and save with the first word (example: If you type"Palm say the truth", you should save it with the name Palm.txtX Tan - Apr 2 2008 1:53AM

this is due to the type of encoding that the chineese characters are shown in, for example unicode and ansi are both different character numbers, this goes into the binary setup etc -
unfortunately this did not work for me Sir notepad - Jun 16 2007 10:55PM
Not EVERY single 4,3,3,5 letter word will do this. For example, even 'hhhh hhh hhh hhhhh' will work, but 'fred ate the trees' stays as is. kaboing - Feb 15 2007 5:25PM
It's actually random Chinese characters that show up, If you do not have the eastern Asian language pack installed, you see boxes. Apparently this is caused by some code/number thing that notepad does while saving things. Any 4 letter word + 3 letter word + 3 letter word + 5 letter word will do this. blah - Jan 16 2007 8:57PM
