Why is it doing this?
I've tried the preferences for changing languages but to no avail. It's bugging the hell outta me now.
Anyone got any ideas?

On a PC, I would check the font they specified for those blocks and verify that my machine 1) had that font installed, 2)The font files weren't corrupts, and 3) that there weren't default language issues both in the OS and the browser.
You've pbly tought of all this though.

Yeah, tried just about everything. It's weird but it only seems to do it on certain sites...

is it not when you visit say a japanese site? then you have to go to character set>japanese autodetect or Cryllic or whatever language the site is... or is it happening on english language sites?

Hi Hutch, have you tried binning the preferences file? Or reinstalling Safari?
