This is a very strange one. A couple of users recieved chinese characters in their windows explorers search bar. It was as if the language within that section of code had been changed to chinese/japanese.
I could find no detail on this issue anywhere but resolved it by changing the following registry key for the impacted users
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main "Use Search Asst"
Set to "Yes" Made the characters english
Set to "No" Made the charactes chinese
this value was not set in the registry for other users so im not sure how these users populated the key with the odd value. Once corrected for this couple of users the problem disappeared.
