My Netscape 7.1 says iso-8859-1, and the result looks not very Greek to me:

EBT now correctly (unless I screwed up) adds the correct charset in the HTTP reply headers. The charset information was already included as a meta tag in the HTML, but looks like it didn't work for all browsers (Konqueror worked, MSIE didn't). Have a look at the Greek page and let me know if it still doesn't work.

It works, but some words don't change, they stay in English. Words like diffusion, forum, value, users, notes, interesting hits, links,... But maybe that isn't wrong, I don't know.

I think that is because certain things still need to be translated in Greek
