Do no one have any ideas on how to fix this?

Should I post in the UI or other section of this forum?

ok found the issue.

In /Umbraco/Config/lang/, some of the xml files had some funky characters inserted into them. I am not sure how they got there? (only guess I have is the archaic source control we using did something to them).

I replaced all the .xml files there with new versions from the umbraco install zip and all works OK now.
