Hello Everyone, Can somebody point to me a website with free download for a Scid Database. I tried looking for ICOFY but it is no longer available.

Do you want human games?
How about "The Week In Chess":

Do you want computer games?
How about CCRL and CEGT:

http://www.husvankempen.de/nunn/downloads.htm

Lots more besides these, of course.
The first place to look for this sort of thing is Larz Balzer's site:

BTW, Franz seems to be no longer updating his spelling.ssp and ratings.ssp resources. If someone would care to take this over, it'd be great.
