In that case I hope you did not buy Fritz 7/Hiarcs 8/Shredder 6 since they all
use the same very buggy GUI.  And I also agree that Chessbase should be out of
business for their lousy support and failure to fix the bugs in their GUI.

P.S. you can also add Fritz 5.32/Fritz 6/ Junior 7/ to the list of buggy GUIs
although Junior 7 is the best to date.
