I am not very good with this tool so here is my question. I was disassembling a program and IDA reported "Can't disassemble" and started adding some junk in the code section. When this happens the code tends to look like this:

cmp blah.. blah
jump blah.. blah
;---------------------
dd some stuff (this part doesn't seem to be able to disassemble)
dd some other stuff (same here)
:---------------------
inc eax

Can anyone enlight me about what commands do I have to execute in IDA to help it out a little bit or am I running against anti-disassembly techniques and can't do much about it?!?

Thanks for the help,
Newbie

If you press "u" in IDA, it will disassemble the selected line and the following ones. BlackB has a good tutorial on IDA at http://blackb.cjb.net or http://www.cracking4newbies.com
