IE 7.0 encoding bug?

I don`t really know if it`s a browser bug that concerns encoding...or just a badly written website but this is what got rendered with IE 7.0:

and here is the same page rendered with firefox 2.0 (firefox finds some errors too but manages to display a readable page):


and now the same page using Internet Explorer 7.0 with Eastern European encoding... and everyting looks nice now...


The site`s code doesn`t seem to be bad...so the only problem would be the browser....

The site (http://thor.info.uaic.ro/~dlucanu/pa/id_tema_2005-2006.htm) renders perfectly for me in my RC1 build of IE7.

That being said, the page sends back conflicting information. The server returns the header:

Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8

But the body contains the directive:

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=windows-1252">

These can't both be right.
