When my browser tries to show links containing the Swedish characters "å", "ä" and "ö" nothing works as it should, you can scroll endlessly at both directions, tables doesn't seem to work as they should etc. Long story short: **** up completely.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Load the URL i included above

Actual Results:  
**** up page viewing.

Expected Results:  
Normal page viewing.

Well, threated the characters as any other character in links. No idea why this happens, because my friend who also uses 1.5 seems to not have the same problem. Are there any plugins etc. that can interfere?

The page works fine. Tried some links on that page and they work fine too.
Can you point out what link exactly doesn't work?
