Site Wide Activity Ascii Symbol

For some reason, I am getting a strange ascii symbol in the "site wide activity" that looks like a diamond with a question mark in it.

It’s showing up in all the themes, it appears to be a buddypress issue?

Has anyone encountered and fixed this?

    Open up the databases via phpmyadmin and check to see what the charset for those tables are set to. They need to be set to what the other tables are. They all should be UTF8. Please let us know what they’re set it.

    Don’t change anything at this step. Next step depends on what they’re currently set to.

    edit: Your main blog’s theme’s footer has the same issue. The copyright symbol has been changed from the circle c to the question mark. You probably edited or saved the file with something non utf8. You’ll have to fix that as well.
