1) What version of Xchat
2) What are your locale settings
3) What font settings for the parts
4) if xchat-2, what character set for that server?

I've resolved this problem.  It seems on install for both xchat versions (I've gone back to 1.8x) it turns on "use a font set."  This needs to be turned off in order for extended ascii to work.

To fix it:

settings -> setup -> interface - channel windows

untick "use a font set"

Repeat for "dialog windows"
