The difficulty is that the key move ..Qh2 ( with idea of ..Rxe3 after >..Re8 Be3 and the chess on h1 ) doesn't reach perpetual .

The usual question : how long >does your(?) program need to find ..Qh2 and which program can find this at all ? A lot of program can find Qh2. It is a positional problem. I suspect that Fritz6a can play a different move if you give it more time based on the evaluation in later moves. It simply does not search deep enough to see that Qh2 lead to white's adavnatge and not to a draw. After Bxa6 it suddenly understand that white is better. Uri
