No there is no problem teaching ASM. In fact every true computer program should have to write some kind of encryption algorithm in ASM at least once in his or her life. As for not wanting tot each it I would have to ask why would they ask someone to teach it who has not at least taken some classes in it? Now my favorite ASM for Windows is GoAsm its free and that is what I wrote the FruitBasket for demonstration in.

Hi all, I've been given a course in assembly language programming to teach next semester. Are there any significant problems undertaking this using jaws? (if anyone wants to be very negative at this point I'd appreciate it, as I really don't want to teach this stuff!)
