Just remarking on the similarity of the names and the confusion.. Here's the original post.. "Has anyone ever heard of a program call Wincraft? It just came out few days ago for you to download.

If you have any information about it please send. Thanks for you help!!!!" Doesn't this look like Fritz?? No winboard engine takes up 42 meg..
