Thorsten doesn't have the Win32 version (fro Fritz5.32). He has the engine
compiled for Win16, which is not full-strength, but the best I can do until
Thorsten has Fritz5.32.

The Fritz5 platform on Win16 does input polling. It's not a good idea to use for
running a match on a single computer.

Fritz5.32 will not do input polling and is more suitable. It will also provide
the best performance. Some people already have it, so I guess Thorsten can also
ask to get it.

I don't have any book tricks. I wish I had some :) You have the wrong impression
of how I spend my time.

This sounds like a claim of superiority over Junior 4.6. If you persist, I may
have to insist you play a match against Junior 4.6.
