Hello Will, Whenever I see moves like this attributed to Rebel I immediately know what the problem is. It's not the Rebel.mvs book. It comes from setting the EOC to the "Book" mode. There are literally hundreds of these bogus moves in the EOC waiting to jump out if you use the "Book" mode. If you use "Strong" Rebel will discard this move immediately but there is something wrong with either the EOC or the code retreiving the moves. Rebel company knows about the problem but has been unable to fix it. Jim Walker
