Unfortunately, that thread is full of garbage. Here's a nice little tool you can use to detect the most common encodings. Works great for me.

Of course it is impossible to differentiate text written in ANSI which only uses the first 128 characters from one written in ASCII. But maybe that isn't a problem.
