Nothing strange I remember that Shredder2 could find it. the fact that programs find it suggest that they do too much extensions and they can be slower in more practical positions. I guess that they extend by almost a full ply every move that is one of the following: 1)only reply to check 2)the previous move. I guess that this extension is counterproductive if it is used in this way. Uri
