I've seen this when I PuTTY to my system from my wife's system to
read mail. It was resolved when I configured the proper terminal
emulation. There's no one correct way in what I did because the
real key is to get the display window's character processing in
sync with display mode (character set) the application is using.
This approach my apply to your situation.
