the second site is getting hanged in the middle of loading

2.
3.

Actual Results:  
unable to read the news

unwanted question marks should be replaced by actual symbols

these sites are displaying perfectly in IE,   crazy browser etc. but in mozilla symbols are replaced by the ? symbol

Mozilla & Firefox don't support dynamic fonts. Those websites should better use Unicode that this early 90's system.
