When I looked, I thought maybe it was using 2-byte characters - and
"charset=unicode utf-16" seems to back that up.

Then while copying & pasting for this email, I noticed something else:

charset=unicode utf-16"

There's no opening quote. So perhaps Konq is failing to recognise that
it is 16bit?

This was kind of interesting too:

richard@diamond:~/temp$ wget http://www.daniel-kuefner.de/j1/installation.html

10:49:29 (170.62 KB/s) - `installation.html' saved [7338/7338]

richard@diamond:~/temp$ file installation.html 
installation.html: MPEG 1.0 layer 3 audio stream data,  48 kBit/s layer 2 audio stream data,  56 kBit/s, stereo

MPEG??? but I guess perhaps file can't cope with 16bit data either.
