Kuzminator is on a distinguished road
iTunes puts weird words for Russian song

I downloaded a MP3 file. The name of the file was in russian letters. I imported it to iTunes. The name, artist, and album fields were filled. But not what I expected. They were filled with À Íà Òàíöïîëå Íåòó Ñâîáîäíûõ. Does anyone know why it does that? And how do I fix this?

ElDiabloConCaca will become famous soon enough
Is your system set to the English character set? If so, then those Russian characters are probably unicode characters, which don't have equivalents with the Latin (English) charset.
