How can I enbale symbols like "¶" in games?

[Prox]

Okay. I've been getting annoyed that instead of certain symbols I see squares in players names. This only happens in games or steam because I can see those symbols on my internet browser and I am able to use them in notepad and such.
Here's an example:

It's usually because you don't have a language pack installed.. such as not being able to display japanese without the japanese language pack.

It's because you don't have the font... Windows 7 and XP uses different font IE: Me and a bunch of people we can see this guys name with skulls because we have XP but everyone else in the server can't because their on windows 7, this is why i hate when people use symbols

Also I'm guessing you're using windows 7? because i can see kurtis' name no problem....

So all I have to do is download and install some language packs or is it something more difficult?

It says I need some disk to be added, which I probably don't have.
