I don't 'try' I do understand.

Analysis by Shredder 8:

1...Nh4 2.Ne4 Ng4+ 3.Kf1 Ke3 4.Nd2 Nd4 5.Ke1 Kd3 6.Kd1 Ne3+ 7.Kc1 Nhg2
-+  (-10.66)    Depth: 32/66   01:07:20  2431231kN, tb=49150885
(,  30.01.2006)

If Shredder can't find at Depth 32/66 it's not there.
It has EGTB's too.

I'm from Missouri, the "Show Me" State.
Saying Mate in 18 & Demonstrating Mate in 18 are 2 different things.

Whatever Program was used in your Link obviously didn't search deep
enough. Obviously there is NOT a Mate in 18.
