This is clearly a language file problem.
Just go into your CB language file, and change all &....; by their corresponding characters, just escaping ' with a backslash \\ ' before them.
You will need to save your language file in the same charset as your site template (e.g. utf8 without bom if your site template is utf8, or iso 8859 if the template is such.
CB expects language files to not be entity-encoded, as it does the encoding at display time using only htmlspecialchars() .
Doing it any other way would bring a big hit in performance, usability and security.
Just fix the language file and publish it in the CB 1.1 language subforum, so for next CB versions, it's right
EDIT: oops, just saw Stephan's reply... anyway, we agree..

Here is the result attached. It worked for some encoded characters but not all.
The links are better looking but still not as intended.
Anyway this can work better than nothingAttachment erreur.zip not found
