mIRC v7.x is displaying boxes here, instead of the bullet point and angled characters. Whether you see the boxes may depend on your selected font.

The reason that mIRC v7.0 displays boxes for these characters is that mIRC is now a Unicode application and the characters you are using, in the range 007F to 00FF, are codepage-specific. Some of them are even non-printable and have no glyphs associated with them.

To make sure that all characters appear the same to all users, you should use Unicode characters and then save your file as UTF-8. mIRC will then read the UTF-8 text from the file and will display the same text to all users.
