Go here: http://wbec-ridderkerk.nl/ Click on any of the letters: A B C D E-F G H-K L M N-O P Q-R S T U-Z and download to your heart's content. If you want to get clobbered, download Crafty, Yace, Ruffian, Delphi. Ruffian may be as strong as any commercial engine. If you want to do the clobbering, download Golem, Chad's Chess, Ozwald, and Nero There are some that are weaker (e.g. LaMoSca, Bigbook) but you mentioned "stable" so the above list is better.
