Chances are the strings are being mis-interpreted by IDA Pro.
If you find the data section you can undefine the strings and redefine the properly. Most likely, they are going to appear as massive arrays. You probably will have to redefine them as a Unicode string.
By default, IDA shows only ANSI strings in the strings window. Via the menus or by right-clicking in the strings window, you can add other types of strings (Unicode, pascal, etc...)
You should try to add Unicode strings.
You may also want to uncheck "Display only defined strings" and check "Ignore instruction/data definitions" which will provide a number of false positives, but tends to find far more strings.
