Just recently I have noticed that whatever page I look at, whenever the £ sign should be displayed, it has been replaced with a J. Any ideas what may be the cause of this?

All my language/regional settings are correct.

Thanks in advance!
 
You could try changing the Formatting options under Internet Options - Accessibility - Formatting. Sometimes turning these options on/off will cause a page to display funny.
 
Is this happening in every application?(obviously not in internet explorer)

In IE:

. On the View menu, point to Encoding. If a check does not appear next to Auto-Select, click Auto-Select.
. On the View menu, point to Encoding, and then click the appropriate language for the Web page that you are trying to view. For example, if the Web page is in English (United States), click Western European (ISO) or Western European (Windows). If the required language is not available on the View menu, follow these steps to add it:

On the Tools menu, click Internet Options.
Click Languages, and then click Add.
Click the appropriate language, and then click OK.
 
Thanks for all your ideas guys! bcastner, yours did the trick, many thanks!
