Both upgrades are for all ChessBase family. First do the Junior upgrade(12/2004)
to get Junior 9 version 1.0.2, it is more recent. But the new gui has bugs. I
saved the uci.dll file from this upgrade by giving it a different name. Then I
did the Fritz upgrade (04/2004). Then I copied the saved uci.dll file over the
uci.dll file that was a result of the Fritz upgrade.

ChessBase will have another upgrade (that's what they e-mailed me) which will
fix some of the bugs in the latest Junior upgrade and make the use of the Fritz
upgrade unnecessary.
