I m having problem downloading Stockfish 1.2

[pichy]

Thanks, Graham.

I really appreciate your efforts for testing Stockfish 1.2, also if it meant stretching a bit the "Shredder zone" invitation deadline.

Jorge, I see that you are testing with some free engines. If you don't mind, I would suggest to try the "optimistic" version of Stockfish, normally it's stronger with the Toga's family. I prefer the default one because is more reliable, but also more dumb and slow.

In a direct match the "optimistic" version usually wins.


Thanks
Marco

Rybka v2.2 is not too far out from being the number one single free CPU engine, but in every test match that I performed, Thinker Inert came ahead of Rybka v2.2, Cyclone 2.3, Toga II 1.4 5c and Stockfish 1.2 optimistic version.
