I think that almost every program does it. I will be surprised if fritz does not see mate in 4 that is series of checks in 6 plies. I think that selectivity 0 means no pruning but it does not mean no extensions. comparing engines based on fixed depth is simply wrong and I guess that many engines that are weaker than fritz6 on equal hardware may beat it at fixed depth.
