This may cause a crash, but this bug is VERY rare (only reported by two users). 2) When starting a rated game, no matter who you select as your opponent, you end up with the Chessmaster (a rather rude bug, to be sure). This is moderately common (about 10% of users, I would guess). There are other minor issues (such as dialogs/controls not drawing exactly right), but other than that, yes, the program "runs fine". jm
