Notepad can deal with UTF-8, also in XP, but it has the (bad?) habit of adding 
a BOM at the beginning, which confuses every other software that is not a 
text editor. Also, I believe to remember that it produces utf16 (always two 
bytes per character).

Anyway, my recommendation would be Notepad++ as well.
