Assuming your copy of TIR_____.PFB really has cyrillic (I am a bit
suspicious because mine doesn't, and Adobe's website says that the
character set for "Times Std" is "Adobe Western 2", and that
charset doesn't contain cyrillic at all.
But I could be wrong and/or just confused by the file name):
The most likely problem is that you do not have a correct .enc file
(the log of the t2a-adobe-timescyr.tex pdftex run would definately
help).
Best, Taco
