It is actually quite easy. This is what I do.

I first make a Winboard shortcut like this:

"C:\Program Files\WinBoard\winboard.exe" -zp -ics -icshost chessclub.com
-icshelper timestamp -fcp "Winboard232d -pipe" -zippyPassword="????"
-zippyMaxGames="4" -icslogon icc2.txt

I put the file winboard232d.exe in my Winboard folder.

You can get it here: http://members.shaw.ca/webkikr/winboard232d.zip

I can not remember the correct site to get that version, so I just uploaded it
to my webspace for you. (Sorry if I am stepping on anyone's toes.)

Follow the directions in that file, and you will have the rest. I am just to
tired to open Fritz/Shredder to get the rest of the instructions. LoL

Have a good day.

Peter.
