   In your case, TimEd most likely won't read it properly. You would probably   
   have to open the raw packet in a UTF-8 capable editor. In W10 (which I read in   
   your tearline), notepad would probably do the trick.   
      
   TimEd is probably trying to convert the UTF-8 Russian characters to IBMPC,   
   which won't happen. But to make it easier on you, It basically says "I don't   
   know, I just work here" or via Google translate: "I do not know, I am here   
   only to work" in Russian.   
      
   Regards,
