I'm surprised you are asking this question.  It has been discussed here and
Chessbase/Germany has been informed.  Their reply was that the author would be
informed of the problem.  I have stopped reporting problems to Chessbase since
they don't care to fix them anyway.  I just ran it again because my memory is
bad.  Some endgame setups will cause a crash.  For instance I just ran KNNKP and
asked for the longest mates.  Here is what I got.

SHREDDER caused an invalid page fault in
