[(LANG-561) unescapeHtml has been dropped without going through deprecation] UTF-8 support on CSV/EXCEL

I have a struts 2 application from which user can download CSV file. 
The problem is 
 I download the CSV on the website then save to desktop of my computer and
Open it on NOTEPAD... 
that works fine I could still see all the utf-8 text OK with no problem, but
if I open the CSV file in Microsoft EXCEL, 
all the  utf-8 text are no longer readable.

Does any one have the solution for this, how could I make it readable in MS
Excel 
I am using org.apache.commons.io.FileUtils
FileUtils.writeStringToFile(file, test); 
i also tried it with 
FileUtils.writeStringToFile(file, test,encoding) method
Still the problem exists
