  HI,

  Chess.net got an interesting feature in the program they offer. You got a
Cancel button. If the button is Disable the other person use another program
like Winboard for example. If the button is green everything is ok. If it
becomes yellow it means that the other person is switching back and forth
between programs. If the person continues like that it becomes red and you can
abort immediatly by clicking on it. It won't become yellow for one switch but
for one or more between each moves.

  Of course, that doesn't prove that the person is cheating but i think that if
he wants to play he should stay in his program and play.

  You can still have cheaters with two computers but i think it should get rid
of many of them.

Bye.

Sylvain.
