Also for interest, if there are copyright rules stating this, when I buy my chess programs, or any other prgram for that matter, they are usually boxed in plastic and do not state this on the box cover, so it's like opening a pandora's box sometimes when you get it home. So personally, apart from hacking the program, I think if someone wanted to play and show people these games then whats the big deal. To me not allowing this can only hinder the reputation of the program as having flaws and having something to hide. Also, I do not remember the last time I ever read copyright and any other regulations that came with a program. And if I ever find out beforehand that a program would have this rule, then they would not have my money or my interest.
