It is in the pages code.
Open the code in a text editor and delete it by hand in the meantime, until you find the bug.
I cut and pasted this text from yor site. The stuff is in your HTML code itself.

Microsoft Publisher IS NOT A DARN WEB PAGE EDITOR. You are going to get all kinds of characters related to non-html character entities which the browsers will insert what it “thinks” is the correct character.
It may be using UTF-8, ANSI, or some other character set which is not what you want to use.

Just backspace them out, and fix it manually. Shouldn’t take long.
I’m not sure why things like this happen, but it happens sometimes when I copy and paste something from a Word Document to a website.
