Where have you erred? That page isn't encoded in UTF-8! Setting your browser to interpret the page as UTF-8 won't work if the page isn't in UTF-8. The page appears to be in 8859-1, but doesn't actually say... I would have figured that Yahoo would have charset headers, but I don't see one in the source HTML of that page...
Hope that helps...
