The King 2.2 engine can be downloaded on tasc“s homepage: www.tasc.nl

Too bad though that the King 2.0-engine, which is reliably tested by SSDF,
cannot be downloadable there. Since tasc refuses to answer any kind of email
sent to them, the engine King 2.0 is for me, impossible to run (since my king
2-disk is faulty).
