Test page is displayed to you as if some Western encoding (such as CP-1252) is forced in your browser.
BTW, all settings in today's Firefox are where they should be:

P.S. Though I know nothing about iTunes, but maybe you have to change font settings for iTunes?

Yes you are quite right! I had customised my Firefox so much that I didn't even have the menu anymore But I had forgotten about doing it, and assumed Firefox had removed the settings.
Once I changed the page encoding to Cyrillic, everything was fine.

Thanks for posting the helpful screenshot!

Interesting idea! I didn't know about this... I'll try it.
I spent literally HOURS changing the titles in iTunes of some Russian rock that I downloaded. I refuse to do that again but I can't stand the ugly characters that you get when this is not working.

I made the change, but it requires a reboot, so it'll be a while until I can check it.

Yup - Windows 7 is nicer. But I already upgraded because I changed hard drive so I am stuck with Windows 8 now....

They say every other version of Windows is good..... and every other is bad. That's been correct as far as I can remember. 7 was good and 8 is bad. Looking forward to 9. I can't exactly complain though... it's not like I paid for it lol.

One day I'll change to Linux forever, but that's another story.
