Finger EvilSilicon on ICC.  When my connection isn't giving me trouble, Fritz
plays online full time and unattended.  The link to the autoplayer that makes
this possible is:

http://amateurschach.in-trier.de/schach/download/autoplayer/boerger_eng.htm

Email enrico@bytes.net if you have any problems installing the autoplayer after
reading the instructions at download site.

Note:  You will need either two computers (one to run Fritz and another with an
internet connection to run WinBoard and the autoplayer) and a null modem cable -
or one computer running Win9x or ME and two free com ports which the null modem
cable can be connected to.
