Hello Kurt,
Are you playing these games on one computer?  I have played so far 40 games with
your settings except for the "T" book.  I used the CM8000 book.  Here are my
results:
CM8KU vs Deep Shredder 5.5-4.5
CM8KU vs Fritz 6e      2.5-7.5
CM8KU vs Hiarcs 7.32     5-5
CM8KU vs Junior 6.0    3.5-6.5
Totals                16.5-23.5  (41.25%)

These games were all played on 2 Athlon 900 TB machines using auto232.  The
number of games is still small but so far your settings are below the
performance of CM8K default by about 25 ELO points.  I have played about 76
games with CM8000 all games were Game/1 hour.  Statistically your settings can
still be better than the default but I'm getting nothing near the winning
percentage you are getting.  This is just some more games to consider under
defferent conditions than what you are playing.  All games available upon
request.
Regards,
Jim
