 * According to manual, the default value for the bullet is disc. Browsing my site
   with Internet Explorer, this is true:

 * However, in Firefox i have those terrible looking characters “>>” on a place 
   where disc bullet should be.

 * Is the problem in the Firefox? I don’t need to tell that on all other web pages
   i browse, Firefox give me standard disc bullets.
 * Second thing. I removed bullets from the menu with list-style: none. In Internet
   Explorer, everything is ok:

 * In Firefox however, again those awful looking characters:

 * Where is the problem?

 * Have a look for a second definition in your style-sheets, perhaps something like
   a background/img definition for li?

 * The problem is with Internet Explorer, which isn’t doing what your stylesheet
   is telling it to do. Firefox is correctly interpreting your stylesheet.
 * If you look for something like `li:before {
    content: "0BB 020";
    on your stylesheet,
   that’s what’s calling the quotes. IE’s just too dumb to be able to handle that,
   and so defaults to a disc. But you’ve set the list style to “none”, and so you’ve
   told IE not to display any default style if it can’t handle what’s specified 
   in the css.
 * Anyway, that’s the bit you need to change or delete.
