I dont see your problems. But perhaps it's because I dont have your agenda. Of
course there is a way to update in the program itself if you follow the button
for ChessBase in the HELP menue. You then get access to the updategui file and
you then start that file. I did it myself for earlier versions. But again, these
updates are only there if the particular number is still the actual top number
of the program. Actually I searched right now for a new version of Fritz 8
[although the number 9 is already out now!] and I could _still_ find the so
called service package for Fritz 8.  Shouldnt an academic doctor find that file
on his own? I agree that you must search a bit and I dont know why that package
is only on the German site. You know if I had so many problems to get these
updates I would enter the chess server and then I had "it".

Therefore I asked this doctor what his _real_ problem is. I guess his problem is
completely different than what he has described. Because _this_ is true, as a
mere 'guest' [without a registered user name] you cant update your program on
the server... Let's get real. In case someone had bought the named programs at
the time of their appearances, he would have updated on the known channels
longtime ago. However, if someone NOW gets older versions on CDrom and then
expects that he could update the newest patches from the past, then he will
probably face some problems. If people insist I can well call it for what it is
- what the "real" problem is. But honestly I would prefer if we could now pass
to more actual problems.
