Century3 cannot avoid Qb7 at depth 15(100Mbytes hash pIII450).

It can see the score 0.09 for Qb7 but cannot find a better move.

The score of Century3 dropped at depth 16 and is -0.10 after 1:18:56 so I guess
that is going to find a better move.

It considers 1.c3 in the last 20 minutes and I guess that it can find this move
at depth 16 unless I stop the analysis
(1.c3 was considered to be the best move after a long search of Junior5.9)
