The problem is that a normal crafty will not play the hxg move which opens the
rook file  4-5 years ago we had a player named "mercilous" that used this to
shred _every_ program on ICC.  I added specific code for this and Crafty has
not fallen for it in several years.  If you were using the fritz gui, I
believe it turns that off by default (the trojan check code) for reasons
unknown.  But recent versions don't allow this to be turned off, it is an
automatic recognition feature.

In any case, there is _zero_ hope of beating Crafty with this opening
today...  so it is really a moot issue...
