I had a friend test this (since I have no PC) and he says that it  
does use the encoding in the meta header.

Of course if you leave out the encoding from the meta header, IE can  
only use a heuristic or fall back to the default system encoding. But  
that's certainly not an argument against utf-8! ;)
