Hi Chris,

The absolute best way to run Crafty is in the Winboard/Xboard interface. There
are some issues with Arena. IMHO.

If you want to run engine matches with Crafty the Chessbase GUI is the worst as
it doesn't allow Crafty to use it's own book. That is very important. Even with
the default book from Bob's ftp site, you can see how well it did in the last
CCT.
