French characters all messed up

Hi, I just cloned my first site using the component. It's a bilingual site (English/French), translated using Joomfish. For some reason, when I cloned it, the French accent characters are now all messed up. Please take a look:

Orignal site: http://www.super8cam.....ellton.com
Cloned site: http://dev.super8stjerome.com

Please translate to French to see the errors.

Any idea what would cause this?

Hi there! Please follow our FAQ here http://www.joomlaplu.....e,1/#FAQ11 on how to backup sites with special characters!

Basically what you need to do is to simply go in the original site JoomlaCloner configuration area, uncheck the 'Active' checkbox near the mysqldump line, then on the JoomlaCloner Generate backup screen check the "Add drop syntax" option to replace the mysql data when restoring, then generate a backup and restore it again!

Let me know if you have anymore problems after! Ovidiu
