The new Chessbase GUI's (Fritz7/Shredder6/Hiarcs8) are claiming wins on time when using auto232. They simply stop the game and claim a win and start a new game when the opponents time runs out on these GUI's clocks. This is a new bug in these GUI's and I hope the SSDF is watching for this. Programs like Shredder 6 Classic and Century 4 are slow in passing moves via auto232 and they are most vulnerable to this new method of winning. Of course a "work around" is to give their opponents an extra 1 or 2 seconds /move in the Fritz GUI so it will not stop the game and claim a win on time. Don't count on Chessbase to be in a hurry to fix this problem. Jim
