Well, I would consider thge following as a possible solution. Save your signature file as non-Unicode Windows Cyrillic. Use some (re-)encoding software to make it KOI-8. Use %COOKIE="C:\pushkin-signature-your-plain-non-unicode-koi8-r.txt" :). I personally would recommend Decode by Boris Berdichevskiy, http://www.borisba.com/~borisba/decode21.zip (that page is unfortunately Russian only, but the program interface is in English.) I can send you the latest version by personal e-mail if you wish. This software is free. ZIP archive, something about 250 KB. Doesn't need installation; unpack it, and you're done. I sincerely recommending his software to everybody Cyrillic-(and other-) encodings-challenged. (For the record, I am in no way associated with its author.)
