Hi Hiarcs7.32 Owners!
  My post from last night in regards to 2 games and one was a Sicilian was about
this very thing. My Hiarcs7.32 never gone into these bogus lines and actually
showed a decent plus in the one opening and the other, equality!
  I think who ever is getting messed up opening lines from Hiarcs should try and
Re-set the Opening tree! There were other opening lines in openings that were
complained about and when i ran it through my Hiarcs7.32 it was fine.
  Best regards,
 Terry Ripple
