Rebel Century, Chess Tiger, Deep Junior, Deep Fritz.

Try it yourself at 40/2.  If you can win 50% in a 10 game match, post the PGN's
and I (and others) will verify.  I have tried, but did not work for more than a
game or two.

I do not know how these programs adapt, but they did using learning or
programming, you will need to ask the programmers, not me, I can only tell you
how my program "Dallas" handles it, but the learning.
