Sorry I can't find the reference. Yesterday I saved a file that somebody was having problems with in AbiWord. It's called krs12.doc but I can't find the bug report or email that posted it.
Anyway I've looked at it in Word 2001 for Mac and it seems to be a Russian Word file with the encoding broken. All the characters are garbage but the same type of garbage you get if you load a Russian plain text file with a latin encoding. On this basis my guess is that the file was created by a very old version of Word that didn't save encoding information or it could have been created to use a bad font that had cyrillic letters but latin encoding. I hope somebody can find the original mail/bug report this refers to...
