I use deep shredder on ICC and FICS, and I'll be the first to tell you, it's
blind as a bat against king side attacks. It'll chase pawns, and just completly
ignore it's king safety in positions like this.
Case and Point:
[Event "ICC 15 5"]
[Site "Internet Chess Club"]
[Date "2001.06.01"]
[Round "-"]
[White "garompon"]
[Black "Project"]
[Result "0-1"]
[ICCResult "White resigns"]
[WhiteElo "2572"]
[BlackElo "2523"]
[Opening "Sicilian: Canal-Sokolsky attack, Sokolsky variation"]
[ECO "B52"]
[NIC "SI.01"]
[Time "00:37:02"]
[TimeControl "900+5"]
1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. Bb5+ Bd7 4. Bxd7+ Qxd7 5. c4 Nc6 6. d4 cxd4 7. Nxd4
Nf6 8. Nc3 e6 9. O-O Be7 10. b3 O-O 11. Bb2 Rad8 12. Rc1 Rfe8 13. Re1 a6 14.
a4 Rb8 15. Nde2 Qc7 16. Ng3 Qb6 17. Ba1 Rbd8 18. Re3 Nd7 19. Nh5 Nde5 20.

Be7 27. N4h5 Rg7 28. Qh6 Rdg8 29. Nxg7 Bxf6 30. Nh5 Bd8
(DS went on to win the game, because garompon got into time trouble, and
blundered.)
And here's some other Deep Shredder bashings:

(Nice example, why computers should not play the french.)

However, in Deep Shredder's defense, I will say this, 5.32 is MUCH wiser on
these attacks, and does not, and will not fall for them near as much.
