I've got two sites that are clones of each other. The only differences between the two are a master page and a css file. They are identical in every other way.

I've got an XDocument writing from a StringBuilder
Code Csharp:
					XDocument googlesiteMap = XDocument.Parse(xmlString.ToString());
On one site everything is fine with the sitemap, on the other I get a byte order mark. This causes it to fail in Opera. Seems to work fine in IE, Safari and Firefox. Only Opera sees the BOM.

Any idea on how to rid the byte order mark from the XML sitemap?
