Skaki is mentioned as well and you might want to test programs under the same "crown" category. Another option would be to try some of the programs available at http://www.gambitsoft.com/sharee.htm This would be trial and error as I'm not familiar with most of the programs available for download there, nor their actual strength. Maybe old versions of GNUChess, KChess and Gromit could be useful to try. The same goes for Nero and Raffaela IMO. Mogens.
