Explanation/Reference: The Web Parameter Tampering attack is based on the manipulation of parameters exchanged between client and server in order to modify application data, such as user credentials and permissions, price and quantity of products, etc. Usually, this information is stored in cookies, hidden form fields, or URL Query Strings, and is used to increase application functionality and control.

If each person emailed the admins directly with examples of these unicode chars, maybe they would purge them for the question database. You can google these lines with the unicode and find out all the sites that are using the exact same questions. Obviously, ET has copied this from some other site who may have inserted them as a form of Watermarking to protect their IP. Email them everyone!
