When I read the textfile as a bytearray and use UTF8.GetString, I get
the same result as when I use a StreamReader. My code:

            foreach (string filename in
Directory.GetFiles(_config.PwdPath))
            {
                //1. read with StreamReader
                StreamReader rdr = new StreamReader(filename);
                string line = rdr.ReadToEnd();
                rdr.Close();

                line = line.Replace("\r\n", "\n");
                string xmlcontent = XOR(line, "pwdhook");

                //2. read as bytearray
                FileInfo fi = new FileInfo(filename);
                FileStream fs = fi.OpenRead();
                int nBytes = (int)fi.Length+1;
                byte[] ByteArray = new byte[nBytes];
                int nBytesRead = fs.Read(ByteArray, 0, nBytes);

                string line2 =
System.Text.Encoding.UTF8.GetString(ByteArray);
                line2 = line2.Replace("\r\n", "\n");
                string xmlcontent2 = XOR(line2, "pwdhook");
            }

Should I do something with the textfile in C++, to make sure it is
interpreted as UTF8 or something like that? Again, here's the C++ code
I use to write the password stuff to a textfile:

    fstream outPwd(path, ios::app);
    if (!outPwd)
    {
        fstream outPwd(path, ios::out );
    }

    outPwd << xmlEncrypt;

    outPwd.close();

I feel I'm getting closer to the solution with every tip I get here,
hopefully I'm there soon ;-)

Thanks again for all the help.
