Recent incarnations of Word (98 and 2001 on the Mac platform) are
able to open web pages directly. Select "Show source" in your
browser, save the result as a text file, and open it.

You can also select the text in the browser (Explorer only; possibly
Netscape 6, haven't tried), copy it, and paste it into Word (works
with a couple of other word processors as well). Even if the text is
encoded as KOI-8, it will then turn out in Mac Cyrillic on the Mac,
and it should work in a similar way under Windows.
