European non-english characters problem [#682736]

I'm using the GeoLiteCity.dat database. When the city name contains non-english characters they get scrambled.

For example the city Västerås get's loaded as V�ster�s

I've tried changing the character encoding on the .inc files to ISO-8859-1 but I can't get those characters to display correctly..

Did you try UTF-8? That's probably what Drupal is expecting...
