Well I get the same message every time and when I click the "OK" button in the
message block the program unloads (every time).  This happens in Shredder 6
also.  Another problem I have is since installing Shredder 6 my Fritz 7 startup
shows "Play Shredder"  instead of "Play Fritz".  So both icons startup looking
like Shredder 6.  I haven't checked for any more bugs because I simply don't use
the new GUI's.  I run everything inside Junior 7.  I did notice there are still
problems inside the Fritz 7 GUI which were present in the Fritz 5.32 GUI.
Complaining to Chessbase makes no difference.  If it were not for the great
engines provided by some really talented programmers, Chessbase would be a big
flop in my opinion.
