Subject: Does your program see the winning sequence in this position?

Take a look at this position.  Arose from a game a friend played against Chess
Genius 5.0 on his AMD K6/200 (only 4MB hash):

[D]k7/1b6/8/8/2Q5/8/6p1/6K1 w - -


Genius was set at 5 seconds per move and could not find the win (marching his
King towards the enemy....). Please try your programs at faster time controls
and let me know how they do.

How exasperatingly dumb programs can be at times!  BTW, I had to time to test
only Shredder 3 and it found the winning sequence easily.
