Regarding MSIE 6 for Windows, I remember that there is a setting you
should verify in Windows XP for displaying accordingly iso-8859-3
(iso-latin 3, south European languages like Maltese), because by default
it is not checked even though MSDN claimed in their page to support
iso-latin-3. So, I don't suspect this is also the case for iso-8859-2 but...

Start/Settings/Control Panel/Regional and Languages Options/Advanced
tab/Code page conversion table textarea and here verify that
28592 (ISO-8859-2 Central Europe)
checkbox is duly checked.
