OutLook Express; Strange fonts

Need some ideas about this one. Some emails I recieve contained a form of scrambled text. It has occured in both text and HTML fomats. It's like it is written in a font I do not have. Most of the email is readable, just a line or two comes out in this strange format. An example is included below:

"The 5-11, 180-pound goaltender has posted 30-or-more wins in seven of his last nine NHL seasons, posting a career best 39-6-5 record, along with 2.17 goals against average during the 1995-96 season. The two-time Stanley Cup winner, backstopped the Red Wings to the 1997-98 Championship, recording a 16-6 record, along with a 2.12 goals against average. He set a Red Wing record by recording a 21-game unbeaten streak (19-0-2) and notched a career-best, 13-game winning streak during the 1995-96 season. Osgood has earned the Jennings Trophy on two occasions (1996-97, 1995-96), along with teammates Mike Vernon and Kevin Hodson.
