This can happen with certain web browsers under certain conditions: your computer is writing text as a different sequence of bits than your web site is expecting.
Specifically, your computer is writing text using the ISO-8859-15 encoding (a set of 256 characters), and your web site says it's written in UTF-8 (a set of theoretically around 1.1 million characters). All the letters and numbers are sent as the same sequence of bits in both encodings, but some other characters (like the pound sign "£") are expressed differently.
So, what you need to do is set your web site to say it's written in "ISO-8859-15". To do that you just need to add a file called ".htaccess" in your home directory, containing the line:
AddDefaultCharset ISO-8859-15
