If this is the reason then I do not understand the reason that most of the
games of Junior5 are not public.

I am interested mainly in the games of Junior5 against pentium200MMX programs.

Only games against Nimzo98 are public when
the matches:Junior5-Fritz5,Junior5-Hiarcs7,Junior5-Rebel9,Junior5-Mchesspro are
not public
