No answer about which program plays the move, but it's a NICE move:

1.Nf5! gxf5

   [1...Bf8 2.Qxh5 gxh5 3.Rg3+ Bg7 4.Nh6+ mates next move]

   [1...Bh8 2.Nfxe7+ +-
      (or 2.Nh6+ Kf8 3.Bxh8 +-)]

2.Qxh5 Bxb2 3.Rg3+ Kh8 4.Rh3 Nf8 5.Qxf7 e6

   [5...Be5 6.exf5 Rc5 7.Rd1 b5
      (7...Rxd5 8.Rxd5 +-)
      (7...Qd8 8.f4 +-)
    8.f4 +-]

6.Nf4! Bg7 7.Rxh7+! Kxh7 8.Nh5 Kh6 9.Qxg7+ Kxh5 10.f4 and mates
