Sorry, I don't know ICC very well.

But I would be pleased to let Chess Tiger play against you, or one of your
favorite engine, say at PlaySite? It is easily accessed with a Java-enabled
browser and has a nice interface.

We can arrange a date later if you want. I'm leaving Thursday to go to France. I
plan to have Internet access again by next week.

I would be pleased to play and talk with you.
