I did try latest version - same story. It doesn't work. :( However I found a cludge in Russian section of the forum. They say if you select everything in Windows international settings to be Russian - it will work. But sorry, I can't do that.
However, many people would want to work with russian or any other language using any Windows localization. Ability to display peoper characters shouldn't depend on it. -- <http://forum.pspad.com/read.php?4,31494,41032> PSPad freeware editor http://www.pspad.com
