Help unicode character

hi i'm trying to put a copyright © (alt+0169) character into my code , i checked everywhere they all say its \u00a9 but whenever it goes into my code it displays ⌐ (alt+169), as if they fergot a zero or sumthing... its been annoying me for a while i wanna get it straight.

Example;
VBulletin, Copyright ©2000 - 2007, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.

Code:

---

System.out.print("VBulletin, Copyright"+"\u00a9"+"2000 - 2007, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.")

//outputs
//VBulletin, Copyright © 2000 - 2007, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.

---

I tried that, and using string and char variables for it, always puts a ⌐ character...

what IDE are you using? I dont think it matter anyways.
see if you can post your source code here.
