Fruit, Shredder9, Toga, Rybka, Ruffian, Ktulu, Loop List? etc. F2.1, Gandalf, Spike, and so on.That looks pretty variety to me :). >Lets see.

Let's try another Playchess ok Fritz 9 no >problem v Tiger 2004 problem, Why do u need two pc to have chessbase program connect to ICC? U can connect Fritz 9 and other CB engines to icc with One PC.
