character sets with W3?

[<tspivey8@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

I am new with Emacs and Emacspeak, and
want to access some sites. but the extended ascii octil characters get in the way,
notably the a circomflex.
when i access google for instance,
the advanced search has that carcter in the middle of it, i'm wondering if this
is a character set issue and if i can fix it?
i'm using debian linux, emacspeak 15 with via voice.
thanks in advance,
Tyler Spivey
