We will see but I expect even IM's to beat Fritz in these conditions.
I believe that even some posters in this forum that are not IM's have chances to
beat Fritz in these conditions.

I think that it was possible not to give kramnik the latest version of Fritz and
not to sell Fritz7 and Deep fritz7 before the match.

Kramnik is a clear favourite even without getting the program before the match.
