Where is the filename coming from? Is it hard-coded in the script or is your script reading it from a directory listing? Have you checked to see if that filename is what you think it is on the Linux server? Was Apache the web server both times, or was iis used on windows? If it was, look for any errant .htaccess files causing problems. Lastly, what happens if you directly request that file from with the browser itself, without php scripts in the equation.

Without htmlentities() the special character is displayed as a black triangle with a question mark in it.
