Have you tried setting it to use unicode?
Here's more info on the subject:

Also, you might adjust the Globalization section of your web.config.
Try changing it to something more like this:
<!-- Web.Config Configuration File -->
<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
<globalization
fileEncoding="iso-8859-1"
requestEncoding="iso-8859-1"
responseEncoding="iso-8859-1"
/>
</system.web>
</configuration>

Hi,
I have a situation on an ASP.NET page on which I do a simple
Response.Write(Request.Params["x"]).
The problem is that when the parameters include special characters like
ä or é they are removed. For example, the string 'aéx' becomes 'ax'.
It is the same for both GET or POST and the problem is not in
Response.Write becuse the same thing happens if I use the string in a
database call.
What is wrong?
