Perl problem

[Shazer2]

Alright, I have that code but when I try to execute it, it has an error
message of:

Unrecognized character \XA0; Marked by <-- HERE after <-- HERE near column 1 at backup.pl line 10


Just wondering if anyone knows what the problem is?

use strict;
use warnings;

my $startDir = 'C:\Documents and Settings\Shannon\Desktop\SETUPS AND FILES';
my $newDir = 'G:\BACKUP';

myReadDir($startDir);

sub myReadDir {
***my ($dir) = @_;****
***opendir (DIR, $dir);
***my @dir = readdir (DIR);
***closedir(DIR);
***foreach my $file (@dir)**{
******next if ($file eq '.' or $file eq '..');
******if (-d $file) {
*********print "$file is a directory\n";
*********myReadDir("$dir/$file");
******}
***}************
}

The asterix's are spaces so yeah
