However I have played quite a lot Rebel-Shredder (2 and 3) games. From time to time I see Shredder 2 and 3 crash (this programs caused an illegal operation etc). I have also seen (many times) the graphical board of Shredder 2 and 3 being totally corrupted with weird ASCII characters. Still Shredder happily plays its games while something obvious is broken. I never have seen such a thing playing Shredder manually. It's my opinion it's entirely auto232 related. 2 weeks ago I stopped a Rebel Century - Shredder3 match after the score was 30-6 in favour of Rebel Century. This match score is of course total nonsense. If you wish I can send you the games. Maybe you can investigate what was going on. This all reminds me on the article in the ChessBits (issue 1) magazine about auto232. Several cases were mentioned where it was impossible to reproduce Shredder moves. Auto232? Ed
