Cyrillic Fonts

Current browsers should automatically detect the character encoding used in a web-page. However, occasionally if a web-page has not defined the "charset" in its head metadata the browser will not detect the page encoding. In such situations try selecting one of the Cyrillic character sets -- for instance the Cyrillic Windows-1251 set for Russian, which was commonly used before the widespread adoption of Unicode UTF-8. The site may now be readable in Cyrillic, if not try one of the other Cyrillic encodings such as ISO 8859-5 or KOI-8R.
