Help in translating a phrase

Can anyone tell me what the translation of the phrase "Ghost Riders" would be into Russian and Ukrainian?

The intended translation of the reference to Ghost Riders is as a phantom or ghost that rides a horse or machine. They are more of an image of a mysterious group that can be heard and maybe seen.

Thanks
David

Russian- "Привидения всадники" (Или) or "Скачущие привидения"
Ukrainian "Привиди вершники" (або) or "Кочуючi привиди"

Can you help me figure out how to type Ukrainian on the computer. I would like to write to relatives but I'm not sure how to go about it.

Thanks , Nina

Have a look in Control panel for language and keyboard options.
I have Vista, in my case Control Panel - Regional and Language Options - Keyboards and Languages - Change Keyboards gets you to Text Services and Input languages - General - Add
Choose the language and setup hotkey to change languages in the Language bar that will appear on the screen. Go through and study the other tabs to set up as you wish.

If you don't have Vista it will be slightly different, but again go to control panel and look through the keyboard and Language related functions.
If all else fails then use the Windows Help system

You can adapt your keyboard with stick on pre-printed cyrillic letters too. I got ours from ebay.
