Any reasonable program should be able to see this mate quickly. Chessmaster 9000
finds it VERY quickly:

Time	Depth	Score	Positions	Moves
0:00	1/3	-Mate05	691		18.Bxf7+ Rxf7 19.h3 Nxh3+ 20.Kh2
					g1=Q+ 21.Kxh3 Qg2+ 22.Kh4 Rf4#
0:00	1/4	-Mate05	1242		18.Bxf7+ Rxf7 19.h3 Nxh3+ 20.Kh2
					g1=Q+ 21.Kxh3 Qg4+ 22.Kh2 Qg2#
0:00	1/5	-Mate05	1977		18.Bxf7+ Rxf7 19.h3 Nxh3+ 20.Kh2
					g1=Q+ 21.Kxh3 Qg4+ 22.Kh2 Qg2#
0:00	1/6	-Mate05	5114		18.Bxf7+ Rxf7 19.h3 Nxh3+ 20.Kh2
					g1=Q+ 21.Kxh3 Qg4+ 22.Kh2 Qg2#
