Chessbase themselves have given me the links to update my products due to a bug
in the ICS mode for the Playchess server and my router.

Certain firmware revisions for D-Link DI-604 wired routers made it nearly
impossible to connect to playchess and whenever you could connect, you were very
limited in what you could do.

I was not willing to risk my network security just to connect to the playchess
server to get an update, so Chessbase just gave me the links to manually
download new updates.
