You didn't say what program this is happening in. It looks as if it is a non-Unicode-compliant program, and it is translating the Arabic letters into ANSI codes (based on the Arabic code page 1256), but then displaying them according to the Latin 1 code page (1252).

Depending on your version of Windows (I don't know anything about Server 2003) you should be able to set the system language for non-Unicode programs (in my Vista it is on the Administrative tab of "Regional and Language"). That might help circumvent this issue.
