The guys on ICC can find out if there is a chess engine running simultaneously
with your ICC client.  Piece of cake for them, just ask.

4 moves in 0 seconds is nothing special as most of the exeperienced players use
premovers (anticipate your next move and then move before you have executed them
-- supported in Winboard Plus or Blitzin, for instance).  I had a guy execute
more then 10 moves in 0, and he was not cheating.
