In Infinite Analysis mode, in a simple endgame position, in one of the analysis
lines, Fritz 7 (MMX) overlooked that it could simply capture opponent's Queen.
Instead it made a positional move, which was OK, but definitely much
weaker/poorer than simply capturing opponent's Queen. I haven't seen that sort
of stupid/weak play from chess computers/engines for almost 20 years! So it must
be a bug...
