I went to playchess.com but did not see how or where I could access the latest version of Junior 9. Its been a long time but I seem to recall that if accessing this site with Junior9 Gui it should have automatically checked my version and given me the latest Junior and Gui updates. Am I mistaken and if so where did I go wrong? Thanks, Paul
