mu-online: English-Russian dictionary Dictionary with extended search capabilities. Dictionary interface and search results are in KOI8 cyrillic encoding.
MultiLex On-line Dictionary This dictionary includes an IPA pronunciation guide for the English, accented syllables for the Russian, and a frame filled with synonyms, so it functions as a thesaurus, too. Unfortunately, the results of a search provides too many definitions, many of which are wildly wrong. It functions better from English to Russian than vice versa. Best for professionals who know the language well.
