I can assure you that I did not mean to play a prank at all.
However, I do not guarantee my system is not corrupted, but then it's probably
something to do with the heavily tweaked experimantal OS installation on which
this tournament was run :
95 files , 10 Mb all told , registry cleaned and scrubbed to the bare minimum ,
no Java , no VBS , no OCX , no shared .dll's , no network, etc. etc.
Hard to say how this interacts with the CPU and I won't deny I regularly have
sytem trouble with this OS.

But on my other computer I have several Linux distros, QNX , Win98, XP : )
