I do own Fritz 5.32 and Fritz 5 and Fritz 6 and I know the name is not Fritz because it says it's Fritz 6 right on the CD. Now if Shredder omitted that bit of information when packaging the program I'm sure it's just an oversight. Certainly you are not claiming all Fritzs are the same and all Shredders are the same. If whoever is putting out this bit of information is purposefully being misleading then shame on them. What could possibly be gained by misleading the spectators as to which program is playing?
